Question for Pfadts - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So here is the alignment, I think everything looks ok but maybe the rear left toe needs a little adjustment. and is the front camber ok at 6.5 or do I need to readjust that?

That's caster at 6.5, which is fine. if it were camber No it would not be fine

Overall, everything is certainly ok with those numbers. The toe up front is a little on the conservative side, but obviously nothing wrong with that. Caster is perfect at 6.5 left to right. The spread being 0 is optimal.

It would be optimal and ideal to have identical camber values in the right and left rear, but not mandatory to the point where the car will not function properly. Overall, I think you are set.

Cool, thanks a lot for the reply. I'll drive it for about a week or 2 and pull back in and recheck it and prolly set the rears better then but thank you again!!!

I would actually recommend running 0.010 toe in at the front and rear. 0.020 is a little too much toe in for these cars. It will work but I like to see a bit of toe out. Otherwise you may want to increase the caster spread to 0.3-0.5 on the right tohelp correct for road crown and a slight drift. Hit me up on PM if you have any questions. We align dozens of these all the time on our Snap-On laser system.
