Default Camber settings?

Does anyone know what the maximum negative camber adjustment you can get with the stock adjustment points for front & rear settings?

On my '96 when it was fairly new and with the stock springs I got 1.7 negative on the front with all the shims pulled. As the spring sacked out and the nose dropped, the negative camber went up to 1.95 degrees. I replaced the stock front spring with an FHB code and the nose came back up and the negative camber went to 1.65.

At the rear with the eccentric, you can probably get 4 to 5 degrees negative.

Cheers,

Lawrence

OK, I saw the shims in the front and just wasn't sure if that is what they used to adjust the camber or not when you take it in for a four wheel alignment.

Thanks for the info.
