Rear axle locating tool
« on: June 23, 2004, 17:31:59 »
Guys,

Does anyone have a clear picture of the rear axle locating tool that A.Dalton posted. Even when I blow up the one listed at the website he cites, I can't clearly read the dimensions. I'm just finishing up my total resto on my '67 230Sl. Took it out for a test drive and it looks like I've got some major kinks to work out with front and rear end alignment. When starting off everything sounds okay but as soon as I accelerate and pick up a little speed, I've got some vibration coming from the left middle to rear of the car. This was a total rebuild, so the whole front and rear ends including the transmission and drive shaft were removed and rebuilt with many new parts including all the bushings and rubber. I'm sure all the alignments are now out so I'll be working these off in the next few weeks. Sure several of you guys have encountered this. Got several other tools to help get the front end castor, camber and toe-in into the ballpark and remembered that someone on the site made a tool for the rear end. Thanks--George Des
