Alignment Specs - Post Drop

delusional · 07-02-2012, 02:33 PM

Hey I tried searching and couldn't find a thread on this. What is everyone's alignment specs after a drop? I think my camber is really negative but I already got an alignment. Just want to see what everyone else's is.

Drop: Eibach Pro-Kit Springs

Camber Front: -1.7 / -1.6
Caster Front: 6.0 / 5.1
Toe Front: .08 / .06

Camber Rear: -2.9 / -2.9
Toe Rear: .14 / .16

you got thrust angle.

SPOHN · 07-02-2012, 03:02 PM

Toe is off front to back. Rear camber is to much. As kenchan said what's the thrust angle?

delusional · 07-02-2012, 03:40 PM

Front thrust angle is -.10 and rear is -.01.

how much should my toe be? and my camber, is it normal to be this much without a camber kit?

Yep, get a rear camber kit and get it re-aligned.

The rear camber is. Unless your drifting.

3 degrees of negative camber? I don't even think people would even run those numbers on a twisty road track.

delusional · 07-03-2012, 01:48 AM

do you think they'll be able to reduce the camber a bit without the camber kit?

They don't. MOst of us track guys run -1.8 or -2.0 due to the amount of increased camber are car has under load.
