Default Alignment Done!

Just had the alignment done after factory lowering it took 2 hours to get it perfect. Thr front was ok at -.8 camber which I changed to -1.4. The back was out of spec -1 and -.4 so I had those both put to -1. Toe front and rear is 0, total toe is 0.

It is not easy to align these darn things!

Default Re: Alignment Done! (Zbatman)

You got that right! Even if you find a nice peice of alignment equipment it may use frame jacks to lift the car to put the aligment plates under the tires and it takes for EVER for the car to settle with the transverse composite spring. Very sensitive to ride height.

Let us know if the car doesn't wander around and hunt a bit with 0 toe front and back. :chevy
