Re: [Chrysler300] 300f wheel alignment

[mwl1967@xxxxxxx]

You don't state what the specs were that they set it to and I'm sure  
someone or the archives still have a copy of a lengthy handling article from the  
listserver from maybe ten years ago but basically...
 
Have the shop set the car for maximum postive caster (2-2.5 degress would  
be great)
camber slightly negative and toe in are preferred.
 
I have two 300K's and one we got 2.5 deg + caster ( this is what gives you  
high speed directional stability ) and the latest one I built can barely 
obtain  1.0 deg + ( I'm not positive - pun intended- but I think the 
"improved"  style strut rod bushings are a higher durometer and don't crush as much 
when  tightened thereby not bringing the lower control arm as far forward as 
my other  K )  Anyway, point is the two cars track noticably different; the 
one with  more caster rides better.
 
Hope this helps,
Mike Laiserin

Hi to all and a happy mothers day to all the ladies.
Can some one  remind me of the proper setting when doing a wheel alignment 
on a 300f with  standard tires. Seems you had to set max camber..caster 
...toe in ....or such  to get the monster to track properly. My shop just did an 
alignment as per  factory specs and it won't track in a strieght line 
...just wonders across the  road and i can't remember what the trick and fix is . 
Help!!

Thanks to  you all, _Larry..chrys300f@xxxxxxxx
