    GT350 Front Toe on Track Alignment - In or Out?

    Thanks for all the input everyone, I think this just validates that it doesn’t matter too much as long as you’re close to 0. Might as well play around with it.Ford doesn’t spec nearly enough camber either, so you have to take these recommendations with a grain of salt I suppose.thanks again

    GT350 Front Toe on Track Alignment - In or Out?

    Interesting. Now that I see the 2020 specs, I just think they misprinted 2019. Should have been negative.

    GT350 Front Toe on Track Alignment - In or Out?

    The GT350 supplement recommends positive 0.1 total front toe (i.e. toe in) for track alignment of 350R. The usual recommendation for this type of car is a slight negative front toe (i.e. toe out) to help with initial turn-in.Why does Ford recommend positive front toe? Is this intentional to...

    How Much Rear Camber Adjustment Is Available with Factory Components?

    I use -2.0 in the rear and my GT350R is completely stock.FYI I use -2.7 up front and that seems to work well. I recommend at least -2.5 up front. Honestly I’d go even more if I could, but the stock tolerance slop won’t allow my car to even with Vorachlag plates. the outside of my tires...

    Camber plates - which ones to get

    I had the dealer install my 2019 GT350R camber plates (or adjustable strut mounts as they call them) and everything seemed fine. But I had my car aligned for the track, and the shop said the right side couldn't go above -1.8deg camber and the caster was a full degree below stock (and caster in...

    Front only camber adjustment worse than stock/no adjustment?

    I left the stock alignment. I brought a jack and my plan was to add camber during lunch if the tire shoulders were being smoked. They were worn pretty good, but it wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be so I ended up leaving everything alone.I'll definitely get a better alignment...

    Front only camber adjustment worse than stock/no adjustment?

    @JAJ Thank you. Now my problem is I can make the camber adjustment(s), but I don't have time to get the toe adjusted at a shop. Track day is tomorrow so too late now, and I don't have the right tool to measure toe in my home garage.Looks like my options are adjust the camber and pray the toe...

    Front only camber adjustment worse than stock/no adjustment?

    @ArizonaBOSS Do you think the change in toe setting caused by changing the front camber is something to worry about? Detrimental enough not to change the camber?Thanks!

    Front only camber adjustment worse than stock/no adjustment?

    That's what I was thinking, thank you for confirming. I already left the shop...but it actually looks easier than I thought to use the adjustable mounts. Just need to loosen the three top nuts and slide/move the strut rod. I'm already planning on putting the car up on jacks to flush the brake...
