Hey everyone,

Tonight I plan on finishing the front end rebuild on my 420SEL.

I need to get the camber and caster---I think those are the correct terms set to acceptable/drivable values.

The guide rod needs to be set and the control arm eccentric bolt position..

Does any one have a rough method of doing this? The FSM said to put the LCA bolts at the center position. I did that as best as I could. Not sure about the guide rods though. I left 4-5 threads exposed on the back side.

The tie rods were not adjusted. I just removed the steering arm from the spindle.

Anyway, thanks!
