:?:
Can anyone give me any info on toein/toeout and camber settings/measurements for a "55" C170B? I've looked at the shims and realize they are tapered front to back and top to bottom. Does the Cessna 170 Service Related Articles Manual have this info? And is it worth the price?

The Cessna 100 Series has this info. The camber, toe-in/out should be zero degrees at 2,000 lbs. weight.

Is that level or tail down? I did mine with the tail on the ground loaded up to full gross. Russ
