1998/99 Rialta front end alignment specs?

[Rev Jerry]

Hello, I just bought a Rialta 22q, the chassis is 1998, but the Winnebago spec says 1999 and the title says 1998. Anyway, I need the front end alignment specs and can't find them anywhere in all the books I got with it, or anywhere online. It just got new inner/outer tie rods. Can anyone on here supply the specs? Thanks!

If you go to this URL the specs are for a 2003 Rialta but should be the same for your R.

Also here is more information that you should check on as there has been problems with the real axle breaking at the wheel hub.

Also you can find specs on your Rialta at this URL.

Here are the specs on front wheel alignment.
You should verify, but most likely you need to
use VW Group 2 alignment specs. Here are the numbers for a fully loaded vehicle:

Standing height: 248 +/- 2 mm
Toe per wheel
(wheels not pressed): -10' +/-10'
Overall toe (wheels not pressed): -20'
+/-20'
Camber (in straight ahead position): -1°5' +0'/-40'
Maximum
permissible difference between sides: 30'
Toe-out angle with steering wheel
turned 20° to left and right: 2°10' +/-30' Caster (for zero vehicle tilt):
+3°30' +/-30'
Maximum permissible difference between sides: 1°

The numbers are a bit different for lighter
loads, but we're basically always loaded, so those are the ones I would use. It
seems to me that -1°5' +0'/-40' should barely be noticeable.

Hi Duane


I have Rialta 98 rd / VW 97.


Can I use this same wheel alignment specs for my RV?


Thanks

All of them that I've checked so far use the same specs. I'm not quite sure on the ones with the 5 cylinder engine though.
