Rear IRS Beetle allignment specs - stock

Post by Pillow »

Can someone help me out on the stock allignment specs for an IRS Beetle rear suspension?

Nothing fancy, just info for the allignment shop tomorrow. I do not own a late Beetle Bentley manual for the specs. And the Haynes I have for the late Beetle is worthless as usual. :(

Thanks!

Original IRS specs were: -1°20' ±30' camber (max 20' deviation side-to-side) and 10' ±10' toe-in.
Revised to: -1°20' ±40' camber (max 20' deviation side-to-side) and 0° ±15' toe.
