Once again. As i said. I read you didnt need to buy anything for such a small drop. I dont want to spend 800$ on lcas. That is ridiculous.

Why is the camber -2.5 on one side and -.9 on the other?

That makes no sense to me. Is it the springs settling?

Did you measure the camber before you lowered it?

Did this alignment tech ever look underneath the car before taking those measurements?

Again, google up on double wishbone suspensions. If you find a picture you'd like to discuss, post it up here. Let's start with the absence of a "strut" on the diagram. Shock, yes, but if your guy blamed the asymmetry on a bent shock, you need a new guy.

Did he not show you what was going on down there? Next time you have a chance to look, ask. Most guys will be happy to give you a brief rundown. I know I would.
