can anybody explain how tracking should be properly done??
and dont answer me with ( a laser system) im talking about no.
you see, my brother tracked my car on tuesday last but the car feels ropey, why is this?? the car does drive and brake in a straight line
when i got the bushing kit installed, it was tracked again, but by the quallified mechanic thats there, and it felt solid (perfect)
the differance
my brother done it by bringing the 2 front wheels to 0 on each side
then added up the no. on the back, it was 4 on each side.. his method for that is add the 2 = 8, divide by 2 = 4 = equal no.= perfect
the other mechanic done the tracking by a book = the manufactors
-1 here plus 1 here, 3 and 4 there
also when both tracked the car, my steering wheel is not straight, a bit to the left, but the car drives in a straight line if left in that position
while on the subject, my brother also balanced all 4 wheels, but there a nasty wobble at 120 - 160 kph, could this be due to the tracking been ropey also??
it could be a buckle in the wheel, i hoped of a pothole ( perfect irish rd lol)
even though its balenced, would a buckle still efect the balancing even after it was balanced??
and how safe is it to have a buckled wheel on the back along with a wheel that dosent look buckled, but takes something like 200 in weights
hope this makes sense but if it dont ask me to be more clear in what im saying, because i do travel fast and i cant relax if my car isnt a 100 percent, so i need answers to WTH i should do
thanks in advance prevtec
