Alignment specs for 1.2" drop? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

This past weekend I installed BMR 1.2" front and rear drop springs, and now that the springs should be settled, I want to get them realigned tomorrow. I am not exactly sure what changes need to be made, as I don't know much about alignment, but what should I tell the mechanic tomorrow when I take it in the shop?

This is the Pedders sheet on alignment, I always lose the Pfadt one but it is similar, and if you want to change your alignment from stock to the aggressive street take a look. Print this and take it to them.

Be aware that this could affect your tire wear but not much until you go real aggressive with negative camber, like me. Read the Pedder Book Of 5th Gen Suspension for a better education.
