creapy78 - I agree with fierosound. Just completed installing a TPI in an 84SE and replaced all shocks and dropped it 2". I do my own alignment, but when I used the excentric camber bolts I couldn't get enough neg camber. So I put the original bolts in to get the right camber settings. Like fierosound stated, camber and toe go hand-in-hand. You have to keep an eye on them. I use 4 wheel dollies at the same level when I do an alignment, that way I don't have to keep moving the car back and forth. Just bounce it up and down. If you don't move the car back and forth, the car will not settle down, which gives you a false reading.

I am lucky enough to have a really good alignment mechanic at a local tire shop. And he doesnt mind working on my hand made suspension. His rule of thumb for every allignment is set the camber first, then the toe at the back then camber at the front and toe at the front. Always does all 4 wheels. He has a flat rate but that only applies if he keeps it below an hours work. So I try to set the camber myself at home and then take it over to him. He gets a lot of track day racers coming to him because he will set up the cars the way the driver wants where most shops will only do factory spec jobs.
