Demick, did they mention how much rear camber was possible? Thanks

<\quote>


I did my own alignment. I was only trying to increase front camber. I measured rear, but didn't want to increase it for tire wear reasons (I forget off the top of my head what the measurement was, but I'd guess around -1.5deg). So I don't know what the max is. I'd be hesitant to go more than -2 to -2.5 deg on a street car.

Was was really interesting, is after setting the front camber to max (-0.8deg), the toe changed drastically (gave me about 1.2" of toe out!!). I expected the toe change, just not nearly that much. Needless to say, I reset the toe to zero, but not after driving 40 freeway miles and competeting in an autox. Craziest thing is that the handling on the freeway wasn't half bad with that huge amount of toe out. Go figure.
