The shop says the front top pivot on the A arms are maxed out. And that they could not improve the front alignment



Start about 1/3 the way down...

Very cool, thank you.

Has the car ever had any off-road experiences? Big hits--maybe even just curbing car hard--can bend the mounting ears for the lower control arms, without bending the control arms themselves... this shows up as a problem getting enough caster.

EDIT: Is this car lowered? If so, NVM the above... the lowering is causing your issue.

Looks like just a lousy alignment shop. Unless your car has been in a wreck, you should be able to get around 7 degrees caster on the front, so they've got it at 3 (which is the non-GT spec; 5 is the GT spec) and supposedly they can't make any more adjustments in the front? After years of always getting crappy alignments from shops, I learned how to do it myself.

I basically did exactly what Fieroguru outlined above in his link, I was very new to Fiero's back then and was a real headache to get my Formula within spec after lowering.

Fully adjustable upper control arms (among other things) are available for the 88.
