I'm looking for the factory caster spec for AE71 Sedan.

AE86 is 2°45' according to intenets
TE72 is 1°46' (+/- 30') according to my FSM

An Ae71 is like a TE72 with a 4A crossmember.... so I wonder if the 4A crossmember adds caster. I don't think so. When I measure my TE72 Sedan with a 4A crossmember and LCA, I get about 1.7°

Looks like swapping AE86 goods into a TE72 needs a caster tweak to be AE86y.... and adding that much with the tension rods would stress out the LCA bushing.

Anyway... anybody have factory spec?

from the 1983 FSM.....

All except wagon 1°45'(+ or - 45') as the "Inspection standard", the "adjustment standard" is 1°45'(+ or - 30'), with up to a 30' difference side to side

Awesome. Thanks!

...Now to add 2° while keeping my TRD LCA bushings....

1986 FSM...

w/o PS - 2°45'

with PS - 3°40'
