Got alignment after installed struts
 

I got my 4 wheel alignment today at a great Indy after I had installed 4 Bilstein Shocks (HD Front, Sport Rear). I wasn't aware that the camber in the front was controlled by the strut mount bolts. I'm sure somewhere I read it but had forgot. When I put on the front struts I didn't weight the wheel carrier since I didn't loosen the wishbone bolt on the frame...however I think if I had, the shock mount would have not been so far off, but still if you look at this picture I probably still would have made sure the bolts went back where they were from the factory...check out out how far they moved them to get a -0.5 camber! (2000 'S')

BTW the car drives great now!

Yup! Here's a little primer on Boxster alignment: Pelican Technical Article: Boxster Alignment Principles - 986 / 987

Thanks Wayne, yup I've read almost all your articals...that's how I've been able to enjoy working on the box so much. I just found it strange that new shocks would effect the factory setup so much.

They shouldn't - something else must have changed...
