Front side slip correction




1.5 mm toe-in application on VW Air-cooled Beetle 1302 solved all the problems in steering reaction.
As I mentioned yesterday, a slight front side slip was corrected inviting the method that came out like flash. In order to know the side slip amount, piled sheets of paper utilizing unused old rectangular calendar. Careful checking on the corner edge after passing tire tread, the conformity there changes into slipped form like a fault slip as shown in the picture. To the out side means side slip to opening direction contrail inside is closing toe. Though this method looks primitive and child forgiveness, actually is practical and useful enough to adjust side slip in precise.
linear and comfortable steering reaction was obtained when the vehicle passed the same winding road experienced before.
Steering center stability is established now, but another problem has relieved, steering center position deviates and fluctuates.
Steering linkage including worm gear box backlash has some excessive hysteresis phenomena, so gear box backlash must be eliminated immediately. As this task is not so difficult so the adjustment would be done fairly.
A driving feel of my Beetle 1302 becomes good to better day by day.
