Hi guys,
I have a question regarding the front compliance assembly. Sorry it is long and involved but it is difficult to explain.
When looked at from the side the compliance adjuster has a mushroom shaped casting half way up and this in turn is above another casting. The gap between these 2 castings is different from one side of the car to the other.
This effectively means that the complaince adjuster is higher one side of the car than the other (all apart from the bit attached to the chassis if you see what I mean). This means that the front mounts of the lower and upper wishbones and thus the angle of the wishbones to the road is different from one side of the car to the other.
This is much easier to see than explain.
Is this OK and if not can you adjust it? It looks as though it has a four pronged star shaped thing looking from underneath but whether that turns or not I can't say.
The caster on my car is 8 degrees one side and 4 the other and the caster adjusters are about in the same position if you see what I mean which would indicate that unless something is bent they are not the issue.
Please help before I have to explain this to someone else.
Many thanks,
Michael.
