VW 1302 Super Beetle alignment

Making the tolerance of thrust angle narrower in VW 1302 Super Beetle is the work now. The thrust angle in a vehicle is the direction of rear total toe direction to the centric line of the geometric axle construction and the vector direction should be well considered in combination with the total toe value. Because the adjustment of the value is directed by the rear trailing arm adjustment, so the equilibrium of the wheel bases on both side is an indispensable element not to be forgotten at all while the adjustment. Narrower tolerance the better for the wheel alignment adjustment is the principle to be remembered all the time. At the fine stage, the frontal toe direction while straight running on the flat ground surface below 60km/h is the key to complete the work, because all the constructive error would be appear here as a the specific "Habit", so to write the thrust angle judged from frontal wheel and some very slight rear toe value adjustment would be performed with precise and keen concentration to make it come to zero angle value. There exist some uneven wear on the ground touching surfaces of every tire caused by historic uneven wheel alignment, some breaking period of driving time is necessary till the steering centric position should be established firmly. Repetitions of this kind of adjustment is indispensable to carry out the correct wheel alignment on the correct geometric axle construction. Thank to my own sober effort on this procedures, my Super Beetle attains better steering reactions and better driving feel. She is the second to none even now on the point.
