NOTES:
1. Maximum permissible difference between left and right hand castor and camber is 1 degree.
2. Subject to note 1, the maximum tolerance of camber, castor and KPI. angles is +- 1°.
3. The use of the Swivel Plates is essential, partially when checking Spitfire rear suspensions. Without the use of the plates, side thrust can cause a difference of approximately 15%.
