B-o-d-y Shop

He said the alignment pic is from the BODY shop. Therefore I assumed he never went to an alignment shop.

Not all alignment shops are also body shops.

You assumed the worst because something deep inside you is broken. Admitting that is the first step to healing.

Oh, I'm having a charming time. I think you may be projecting your own anger. Go back and read your original butthurt accusation.

I take no pleasure in th... ok, maybe a little pleasure. Seriously, can we just be friends?

I'm going to say that the .18 degrees of toe in on the right rear and 0 on the left is the cause. I would suggest trying to get the toe on the left side to match but you should probably make the right rear .15 or less if you can, and then have the left side match. The camber in the rear will adjust when they move the toe, but without rear adjustable lower or upper control arms you won't be able to adjust the camber other than by toe manipulation.


If you even out the toe on the rear it should help the driving dynamics considerably.

This would make the ass step out to the right on a left turn
Positive toe is actually considered Toe in, but I agree with you that I think this is the issue.

I see the attempt at the 3D "alignment squares" in the pic now.
SO the RR IS toed IN more than the LR.

So neg camber means IN while negative toe means OUT - BRILLIANT!
WHO makes this crap up?!?
