Is that essentially. Leaving the bolts loose and putting tires on. Putting car on ground and then fonishing torquing bolts. I assum thats what leveling the arm is mimicing

Level means level... Not sure what you don't understand. Perpendicular to gravitational pull. Its an absolute measurement. The car should be raised so its level as well, as best you can.

Not necessarily. A level driveshaft (not arm!) may not be the same as static rest position, and with tires on you need to roll the car or it won't settle right/evenly.

I googled your location. Looks like there are several speed shops around that could help.

Yah i noticed it was friveshaft and not arm. Re did rears today. With proper spring placement. Seems to be a little better

Not really? There are two tuner style shops. One claims u dont need to tune an frs after installing headers exhiast and intake. Even if youre throwing cel and idling weird. The other doesnt do chassis. Theres one good alignment shop in the whole province. Ill be going there this week

Idk, but you probably need some eyes on help at this point and just get someone to fix it. Good luck.

I highly doubt there's only one good alignment shop in all of BC... I'd suggest talking to some local racers to see where they go.

Pretty much i guess to be straighforqard i seek the cheapest way to 1 degree of variance in rear and 1.5 degree upfromt. Whitelines for front, put bottom bolt up top? Im only 3.6mm closer to suspension than stock setup with my tire and rim now. Will i need something to not hit suspension?

And spc lrcs is cheapest route for atleast 1 defgree in the rear?

3) cheapest option is to slot rear lower control arm. next cheapest is SPC rear lower control arm.

I'm just going to quote myself here for you to review.

If you want cheap, the options are listed here.

All is good! Camber is at -1.7 and -2.0. Always get a second alignment if things arent making sense i guess!!
