    Do you have adjustable front upper control arms?

    If not then the factory subframe shift adjustment for the front camber can only equalize the camber side to side. The rear camber adjustment is just an eccentric bolt/nut so it is really easy.

    Interesting, maybe the front subframe shift is what they were referring to. And no it doesn't have adjustable uca's

    Yea you need a special tool to do it correctly. So a lot of shops wont touch it.

    i'm not slammed, but there is a lot of camber and i want it done properly so i don't plow through tires.

    D&V autobody is cool i like them. maybe i'll give them a ring and see what they will charge. thanks

    Curious as to where you ended up going to get your alignment done? How did it turn out?
