Re: Front Beam [T3]


>That said, did they tell you exactly what they couldn't get into spec?

Yes.

Left front:
Camber 0.7  was 0.2
Caster 2.7  was 2.7
Toe    0.30 was 0.12

Right front:
Camber 1.8  was 2.1
Caster 1.2  was 1.2
Toe    0.31 was -1.51

That was as close as they claimed the could get the camber on the right side.

The tech did recommend I go to a VWFLAPS, as they might have replacement bug beams 
available...   so perhaps he *was* treating it as a bug. Doesn't explain the off kilter 
camber...
Though...
I recall thinking (several months ago) I may had inadvertently reversed one of the rubber 
grommets that help affix the beam when I installed it, but when I got under the car it 
looked fine to me...   this is something I will RE-check. Maybe I need to pull the beam 
to check proper.

Thanks,
