Re: alignment done, thoughts

you prolly need caster camber plates to move the shock out to fix the camber you have. the way its setup it will drive straight but the tires will wear on the inside edge.

Re: alignment done, thoughts

Is that the caster you were shooting for? Looks like it was done to stick spec, I know with my MM K member, dude on phone told me 6, also I have total toe at .30, is the difference the tear of your Cobra? Also before plates, go to Advance and get camber bolts for the 2 bottom nuts on the struts, the shaft near the head is oblong so as you turn them you can increase camber below, and if you go over back off up top or vice versa, may be worth looking at.
