Hardbar Camber plates
I've got a set of Hardbar's Camber plates for my C5Z sitting on a shelf waiting to be installed. I've been wondering about alignment after the install. I don't think my usual alignment shop is going to be able to align the car using washers on the upper A-arm attachment points. I would be able to do that camber but not caster. Any help from those who have gone through this?

I put the camber plate and stud kit on my C6; I didn't even bother to check the caster after setting the camber. Car feels great. If you use a SmartCamber tool you can check your caster as well as the camber.
You can adjust your caster by using a different number of spacers on the front studs as compared to the rear.
The Hardbar alignment tool also made setting toe & thrust angle nice and easy...

They can align it...don't worry about it. And don't be concerned about caster - it is what it is. You may not be within the GM factory alignment specs for caster, but you'll never notice it and the car will still handle beautifully! Just get the camber and toe set where you want them!
