    alignment question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    hey, I just replaced all the control arms and put new springs and shocks and new sway bars in and I am going to get an alignment but the shop doesn't have the audi "sport" specs. I did some searching but there were so many different ranges, so I was wondering if anyone had the "sport"specs. I know the guy doing the alignment and I would rather not go to a different shop. Thanks for the help.

    why do you need the "sport" specs for an alignment?

    well, I was doing some research and I had a non-sport sup. but now i put lowering springs in and from what I have read, the suggestions were to use "sport" specs for close alignment, "usually" the camber is still alittle off. Am I missinformed? And while we are on the subject, should it be "toe in" or "toe out" post alignment?

    The alignment specs are different for each suspension type for the A4 and S4.

    I could be wrong(and probably am), but i didn't think an alignment shop needed specs from sport or non sport to complete an alignment?
