handling (again)

right i know this has been covered many times before but im not asking for an explanation im asking for actual help to set up my indy.
its more to put my mind at rest as ive only had it on the road a few days so there is no way i am driving it to the limit.


is anyone out there willing to help me to set it up as i dont have a nice flat floor to work on
ive only got a very basic understanding of the equiptment
again any help at all is greatly appreciated
thank you

If you are free on Tuesday and fancy a trip over to my place, then I would be more than happy to set your car up with you.

I have a bit of stuff myself, but I'm borrowing a set of corner weight scales to do the set up of a Fury on Tuesday.

My local friendly body shop charge £75 for a 4 wheel laser alignment, but you'd need to get the ride height sorted and corner weight first (well thats the order I would do it as you want to make sure the static camber, castor angles are good at the correct ride height).

Prepare to Win is a good book on setup and covers "stringing" a car, the locost way to set front and rear toe in/out, as you've already worked out you need a good flat floor to start with.
