How hard do you like to corner? The alignment specs in any alignment shop are a joke. They're set that way to make the car understeer through the corner way before you are in any danger.

If you like to rip corners then dial Negative 1.5 (-1.5) degrees of camber into each front tire. Toe at zero and if you have stock bushings maybe just a hair of toe out. Poly or better bushings set the toe at zero.

For the rear dial in -1.0 degrees of camber and toe at zero.

If you just occasionally like to attack a corner then go -1.0 in the front and -0.5 in the back for camber. What you want to make the car balanced is the 1/2 degree split front to rear. ALWAYS more negative in the front then the back in a FWD car and most others. This helps the rear to rotate. Most TD's can get -1.5 in the front with the stock alignment bolts. If you can't get that much don't worry, just make sure you run 1/2 degree LESS in the back to keep the car balanced.

I'll look tomorrow for the shop manual specs. I'll probably get them posted after lunch if I can find something different than std. Lebaron.

No luck finding the right manual yet. I need to find which book they are in. They were not with the secion on suspension or steering.
