W113 '71 280SL alignment

[Mogasaurus]

Because of all the wandering around at speed, I think my SL needs a front end alignment (or a major re-bushing session).

Anybody have access to the factory alignment specs for a 1971 280SL NAS.

tnx !

Thanks !

I note there is no specific info for W113 SL's, but the W114 sedan data is good back to 1967. Do you think using the W114 data would be a good start ??

No, I'm afraid there's nothing useful for you on that page.

Not useful -- the gentleman has a 113 chassis. Specs from a 108 or 111 might work in a pinch, but these newer cars bear no relevance to a kingpin-style front end.
