I will be doing the rear first cause I have a simple fix I THINK, for that.


1. What are the factory specs for the camber both front and rear and also the FRONT CASTER angle ???

2. Are there others that wish to reduce the angle?, I know Brian Black has already said he was.

Thanks Woody
Woody,

Here are the factory range specs for Camber:

Rear:-1.6 to -0.6
Front:-1.5 to -0.9

Here are the precise measurements:

ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS
Front Axle Toe 2.5°
Rear Axle Toe 1.2°
Front Camber -1° 13’ (-1.22°)
Front Caster 5° 12’ (5.20°)
Rear Camber -1° 08’ (-1.13°)
Permissible difference in front axle camber between
right and left side of vehicle
20’

The answer to your second question I would imagine would be a "yes" from all the posts I have seen on this subject in the past.
