Front suspension - Kicking myself.
Ever since I dropped my car down on its wheels, I've been looking at the front suspension angles and thinking, "It looks like the geometry
is out, but I haven't set the tracking up properly yet so its probably just an illusion." That is to say that the Offside Front wheel
looks like it has one heck of a lot more camber than the Nearside, and the nearside geometry looks about right.
Anyway today I was looking at it AGAIN, before I put the car away and I had a tape measure in my hand. Guess which numpty has put one upper wishbone
in the Correct way (the nearside) and ONE UPPER WISHBONE in the WRONG way.       . So tomorrow it looks like I am
going to be stripping & refitting the Offside Front upper wishbone.    .
Mind you now we've got my wifes mother living with us I can quite legitimately blame HER.     
I can't wait to get the engine running & fill her bedrooom with exhaust gasses at some anti-social hour of the
day.

No SHE is living with us. I feel like that manic depresive from the AIRPLANE movie.
