I have a MK III with Power Steering, SN96 spindles, SAI Mod, FFR upper and lower arms, 17 inch wheels and 8.8 live axle. What are the recomended alignment specs. Will I have to use longer Upper arm adjuster sleeves?

Thanks,
Tom

For street use I'd go to ~8 degrees positive caster, 1/2 degree negative camber and 3/32"-1/8" toe IN. With that much caster you'll need to use longer (5") adjuster sleeves on the forward links; the original shorter sleeves will be fine on the rear legs.

Cheers,

Jeff
