FTAO anyone with a workshop manual.

[ZS Phil]

Hi all,
I was hoping somebody would be able to do me a huge favour.
I'm really struggling to find the official factory sepcs for wheel alignmenr/ geometry settings for the Trophy.
I've spent hours looking online and a lot of the information is contradictory.
If somebody with the workshop manual would be able to take a screen shot of the relevant pages, or better still send me a PDF it would be amazing.
I even went to my local main dealer this morning and despite having bought loads of parts from them, they wouldn't sell me a manual and wouldn't even tell me the specs.
Any help much appreciated.

If this does not work, I will try qnd find a different format.

OK it does not work.

Trophy front alignment is the same as the 182 Cup. Any good alignment place will have the factory settings stored in their system.

From memory it should be -0.06' (toe out) on the front.

Tried to edit to add, the -0.06' is on each side, so therefore -0.12' total (toe out).

Hi Stephen, thanks for trying but unfortunately the link doesn't work.
Would taking a photo and uploading that to the forum work?
Or maybe send the PDF via email- I could PM you my email address?

Cheers for that, all info appreciated.
Ideally was looking for all the specs to see how far off things are.
The alignment place I took the car to used clio 182 cup settings but I don't think their figures are right.

As standard, the various parameters of the suspension are pretty much fixed with no adjustability other than the front tracking adjustment.

I don't have the exact figures in front of me, but generalising, as standard front end should run the toe out detailed above and have a bit of negative camber - up to 1 degree or so. The rear generally runs slightly more negative camber than the front and should have some toe in - something around the 0.30' mark I think...

A correct front toe figure I've found is pretty crucial to how these cars handle, if it's set incorrectly they can drive all wrong, they're quite sensitive in this respect. The camber can be tinkered about with / evened up fairly simply by fitting camber bolts up front and camber/toe shims on the rear. Settings for these are mostly down to personal preference or the type of use the car gets - road/track etc, on a road car I personally wouldn't go beyond 2 degrees negative on the front end.

Factory Camber Settings?

I'm getting my geometry fine tuned within next couple of weeks. I'm yet decided if I'm going to go for -2 camber or just optimise/correct the factory settings. Does anyone know what the factory camber/toe settings should be exactly?

Btw I’m running 2 degrees of neg camber and 10 toe out on the front and rears as they came.

Allways a hoot.

Thank you for the replies folks, all very much appreciated

Any chance you'd be able to send me a copy also?

I bought this CD, but have been unable to copy it, probably by design.
