Bounds of the mass of Z' and the neutral mixing angles in general $SU(2)_{L}$ x $SU(2)_{R}$ x $U(1)$ models

We consider phenomenological constraints on the mass $M_{Z^{\prime}}$ and the two mixing angles $\theta_R$ and $\xi$ of the neutral sector in a very general class of $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)$ models using electroweak data. We do not make any specific assumptions such as left-right symmetry or the Higgs structure. The analysis of the neutral sector has the advantage that it has relatively fewer parameters compared to the charged sector since the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements in the right-handed sector do not enter into the analysis, hence the number of various possibilities from a big parameter space is reduced. We utilize theoretical considerations on the masses of the gauge particles and the mixing angles. We combine the precision electroweak data from LEP I and the low-energy neutral-current experimental data to constrain the parameters introduced in the model. It turns out that $M_{Z^{\prime}}> 400$ GeV, $-0.0028 <\xi
