I'm not sure if this would be a consistent measurement from car to car. My arms have been rebuilt and I can't get them to an alignment shop. I need to make sure my axles have the correct lengths. Because of the Boxster design, they are unequal.
1. I need measurement between the inner faces of the arms. 2. What is the longitudinal tolerance of Constant Velocity joints? This will determine if I need to have the axle(s) modified. |

Felix, I'll try to measure something this afternoon, but the measurement will be affected by your rear toe settings.

QUOTE(McMark @ Dec 2 2007, 09:16 AM)  Felix, I'll try to measure something this afternoon, but the measurement will be affected by your rear toe settings. Yes, that's what I'm concerned about. I "should" have take measurements before removing them but even then the large mounting bolt holes can affect that measurement. I wonder how much toe adjustment is made at this mount and/or the tolerance on the CV's, if any... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Thanks! |
