SRV8 Build manual

Hi Guys , dose any one have a copy of the SRV8 Build manual, as I need to find out the settings for the suspension caster angle, toe, and camber. I have been having problems braking and general handling.

Cheers Russ

Hi Russ,

Just had a look in my build manual, but sorry. It does not give any settings. Try ringing Madgwick, they might be able to help.

Cheers for looking, Just rang Madgwick and spoke to a very nice guy there and he has told me on the early cars suffered from misalignment on the front suspension mounting points. This would explain the 3 washers packing out the the upper wishbone on the passenger side. The setting should be; Negative Camber 1/2 - 3/4 degree, Caster angle 4 - 6 degree, Toe 10 minutes approx 2mm. He also told me the shocks are fitted with 10" springs which doesn't allow the ride height to be setup properly, they should be 8". I need to replace the rear shocks any way so this is the Ideal time to make the proper adjustments and check the setup. More time spent sat on the garage floor, that will please the wife I might just send if to Track Developments, less hasel and only a couple of hundred for a proper job.
