    alignment specs

    So a buddy with a B6 wanted alignment specs. Sent him a page from my Bentley but I don't understand it. For example, what is -33’ camber on the front? Obviously it’s not degrees. The last alignment I got thinks -0.6˚ is the camber setting.

    Sorry, I didn't Google well. The apostrophe is a minute, or 1/60 of a degree. So:

    -33' ÷ -60’ ꞊ -0.55˚, or rounded to the -0.6˚ I saw on the last alignment I had done.

    Yea but I haven't forgotten the way our student teacher looked sitting on the desk while talking about isosceles triangles.

    As I understand it, camber is adjustable. But not caster. You adjust camber by moving the sub-frame. But only to the extent that you adjust the two wheels relative to each other. If I'm wrong, I probably got confused thinking about Ms. Adolsek's legs on that desk.
