Wheel alignment help
 
Yesterday I switched out my power steering rack with a manual one. I was trying to find a way to do my own alignment as a temporary fix until i get some $$ for a real one. However I have not been able to find instructions online. I know they exist, do any of you guys have a link or anything? The car looks like it has positive camber now.

maybe you've looked at these places but www.teamfc3s.org or www.mazdatrix.com might have some FAQ sections for that subject. good luck dude :)

I just downloaded the manual rack PDF files from www.iluvmyrx7.com

I'm looking at that info and I'll check all that info.

thanks, Zeff

A steering rack change will have no effect on caster or camber. It will only affect toe. Specs on a 7 are 0 +- .12 inches. You can do toe with a tape measure.

from looking at the car it originally appeared to have + camber, but now after a couple days the camber seems ok, but I measured the toe and it is WAY out of wack. It is really eating up my tires, there's a possiblility of some new springs for my car so I'll wait on the alignment till I see what happens with the springs.
