Yes, the rear toe links do have a cam adjuster on them. Are you suggesting a bit of toe-in on the rear will help?
And adding toe in the rear also affects the total camber reading.
You can be aggressive with rear toe.
As much as 0.23 total toe is still within factory specs. So 0.11 to 0.12 each side.
In front, if you toe in, it will counter inside wear from negative camber.
You could go as much as 0.05 each side for a total toe of 0.1 in front.
This is counter to factory recommendation but is the biggest discrepancy that alignment shops overlook that can make a significant difference.
Factory specs call for straight ahead, 0.00 total toe in front, and that is what makes all of the tires on the front of these cars wear prematurely. Tire always rolling on inside shoulder.
All these cars come with negative camber from factory, which is mot adjustable.
Only toe is adjustable.
Alignment shops, in the name of doing a good job, dial all of our cars in at 0.00 total front toe.
That wears the tires but alignment shops says they can’t do anything else because it’s in spec.
They gorget or deliberately overlook what they should have learned when they took their training.
That is that toeing the front inward helps mitigate inner tire wear with cars that have negative front camber.
As a client, you have to ask for them to do that. I don’t know why.
Anyway, here’s a print of recommended settings from Ford Performance.
I agree with all except front toe for street setup.
We should all have a bit of total toe in in the front between 0.06 and 0.1 to mitigate inner tire wear.
This also applies to the S650 cars.
The whole suspension and steering is all carry over from S550.
