Fusion 1.4tdi (2004) Steering & Suspension Settings

I am looking for the values/angles and  tolerances of camber, caster and tracking.

Whilst the camber angle is not adjustable due to the way the bottom of the strut is fixed (unlike the Fiestas)  I wish to check it following a nudge by the nearside front wheel on a stone recently.

My local repairer says the camber angle is 1/2 deg out but not said whether it is a positive or negative error. I am very familiar with the Fusion front end having replaced the suspension on both sides and doing the two Ford mods at the same time and think I should check and confirm, or otherwise, the stated error.

Thanks in advance.

Do you want figures in decimal degrees or degrees and minutes?

These are 2 zinc rings and 2 rubber rings which fit below the front coil springs. The idea is to reduce spring failures.

Check the online parts catalogue at eucatparts.com There is a mod sheet there. Parts can be had direct from Ford.

I suggest you see my earlier postings on this subject.

Hope this helps!
