Re: Wheel alignment ponderance
I just finished having my alignment done at a shop that advertises on the local car forum. The toe and camber was way out on the passenger side and I only have 2000 miles on the car. I wanted as much negative camber as possible for the track but on that problem side they couldn't get much. So they installed the camber kit, only on the passenger side and I ended up with a negative camber of 1.6 on the passenger side and 1.9 on the drivers side. 1.6 was with the camber kit and 1.9 was without it. Just goes to show how different the two sides can be on a car that has no real camber adjustment. As to any shop doing a bad alignment on purpose, I really doubt it. Having lazy or negligent employees is the usual reason for bad work.
