Get hold of the Bentley manual, and it's all on p581 of the PDF.
There's settings for empty (800kg on front), half-load (1000kg) and fully-loaded (1100-1200kg).
Total toe is +20' +-30' (2.0mm +- 3.5mm) for empty and half, 0' +- 30' (0 +- 3.5mm) for full-load
Castor, camber and rear toe/camber settings are in there, too.

Need mine doind aswell, will give you a shout when I find somewhere, if it wasn't for the price of rubber I would just do it myself.
Would I be right in guessing you have the black and white tin top down by the old Brus arms, thinking I might of met up with you at kingfisher site in knaresborough.

It is a lot and many are animals with the track rods

The figures/data are also in Club 8090 Wiki as well as Brickyard websites.

How do you know it's out? Have you kerbed it... changed the track rods or lowered it
Brickwerks will do it for you.

Or do it with a broomhandle and screw. I do mine that way - always have. Gets it spot on. More reading here:

Camber is easy. You aim for dead upright. You can do that with a square and spirit level.
