It’s come to my attention that suspension needs to be loaded at ride height. Will be redoing it. But the more you know. Thanks for the info @randellgribben9772
First of all the suspension should be loaded, ride hight, so this way you are measuring the toe in or out is all wrong.i work as a tech,and we all watched this at the shop. Had a good laugh,we love watching TH-cam experts,thanks
measure the center of wheel to ground . Remove wheels and use stands to get the same ride height then measure . Toe in/out camber caster need to be measured at ride height .
1st thing, kill the music vol. It makes this video teeter on the edge of being insufferable to watch. If you, like me, want to do alignments with the wheels off then a decent set of hubstands with some decent features would be the best way to go. Depending on quality of hubstand, you can load up the suspension, adjust in 'real-time' and be sure that your adjustments will be bang-on. Yeah, Hubstands are not anywhere near the price of that bent metal but it's a much better guarantee of accurate results. The product you have, I'd wager could be used in a pinch and if the person knows there suspension geometry pretty well. Otherwise I wouldn't trust the results from it to be accurate once weight is on it again. Aslo, sweet Audi! 🤌

At no point did I say or have ever said I was an expert. But noted. Will be loading up the suspension.
@@Atrociousa3 Yes, when I watched I was thinking "what is the point here" everything will measure different with weight on the wheels.

most cars have toe in not straight
Just use a tape measure and your eyeball.
very annoying music

Thanks for the input. Will definitely look into hubstands and keep the volume in mind for future videos.
