Camber Tool Instructions

I've got a camber tool, but no instructions. I know how to set camber, but don't know how to set caster. The tool has three bubble level thingies on it, and a dial that can move at least one of the bubble thingies. I know there is a procedure for measuring caster, and I need to set my caster to a particular value (5.5 to 5.6 degrees). Can someone walk me through the procedure?

Also, what is "stock" toe on these cars, front and rear. Zero front and zero rear?

Send cgarr a pm. He and his brother Denny know how to use that pesky gauge

RE align specs, do a search for a topic you previously created- Toe Adjust Techniquest = the Ray Scruggs home alignment procedure. Don't you remember?

Toe Adjust Techniquest

BTW 15 min. "IN" is the typical toe spec for these cars.

How To Measure Toe In/OUt?
