Front end choppiness

Sorry to rehash old frontend alignment stuff but got tired of searching the forums.
Have a C5 auto that I had aligned just a while ago and it is ALL over the place- road cambered left it pulls left, road cambered right it pulls right- and I going over bumps its jittery as hell. Said he set it to factory specs- what should I set it to? It's a daily driver, not going racing...

Thanks.

Check out the Weights, Measurements sticky for the specs. I'd take it back to the shop that performed the work and verify them (specs).

The jitters over bumps could be due to shocks wearing out.

Can you give us more info. How old are the shocks? Is the car lowered and if so how much? What shape are the tires in?

My car is lowered but I sure don't have those problems.
