Wheel Alignment

[M. Renner]

Hi There,

I have bought a RAV 4 2002 Model. Yes, it's a used (Reconditioned) car. So far, the car is in excellent condition. I have changed the Mobil (Engine Oil) and Front Wheel Brake Pads. Recently, while changing the brake pads, the engineer in the automobile diagnostic center told me that my car has got some problem in its wheel alignment. He connected them with the Computer assisted machine and showed me that my present alignment (both Front and Rear) are far different then the supposed ratio. He changed it to correct position and unfortunately my rear tyres became curved like this / \ . Now, i'm damn confused. As it is a used one, I didn't get the owner's manual. Does anyone has the owner's manual? Everything is supposed to be written there. Can anyone tell me what is the correct Axle Ratio, Toe Ratio and cambershaft Ratio of both front and rear wheels? It will b a great favour for me. Thanx to all in advance for any possible suggestion(s) with pink rose (invisible).

;)
