We plan to do my Cuda this weekend. Any suggestions to do the caster/camber correct, or do I go by the service manuel. I've heard the settings can differ for our roads here.
Thanks

Center the steering wheel and center the tie rods so the front wheels are both straight.
Start with the front UCA cams full out. The rears full in.
Start adjusting the front one in just enough to get a slight amount of negative caster. No more than a 1/2 degree.
Then set your tow-in to just a couple of mm.

Dave !
It is raining nonstop up here, so I doubt if I'll take the car out for the work this weekend

Roel,
You'll probably not manage to get near the recommended set up anyway...do what Pete suggested, or fit tubular A arms
