Alignment

..........I do my alignments myself, but if you insist on taking it to a shop, just get a carpenter's square, and set it next to the wheel and measure from it to a flat part of the outside of the rim. The measurement should be the same at the top and the bottom if the wheel is at zero camber. If the top of the wheel is too far out, bring the front eccentric in. If the top of the wheel is too far in, bring the rear eccentric out. Then check the toe, and set if for 1/16" toe in. Then drive the car 100' or so, and make a few turns to settle things in, and then check again. If you want 1degree negative camber, set the wheel so the top is 3/8" in farther then the bottom of the wheel.


I've done the alignment at home thing and drove it for a year and a half with no issues and no strange tire wear .... took it to a shop to get it aligned a little more toward the autox settings.....now it's wearing my tires on the outside edge, not bad but more wear, maybe I'm driving it too hard :lol:
