ALIGNMENT: THE FIX IS IN ON FWD

It is estimated that by 1985 all domestic production will be front wheel drive vehicles. This article reviews alignment specifications on the conventional vehicles of the 60's and 70's and compares them to those of the new Front Wheel Drive Models. Included in this article is a form "Under Car Analysis and Alignment Record" which should be used to perform a complete undercar inspection before doing the alignment.
