And he did not have it aligned unless he had the adjustable bolts installed up front - the car cannot be aligned as it comes from the factory.
You cannot adjust the front suspension? Think about that again.
The car sounds OK to me, just a few tweaks and it is good to go as long as no crashes, not too many bad dings and dents and the paint is good.
Pizzaguy wants you to tell him where the seller lives.
Here's the text right out of the Crossfire Factory Service Manual ...
"Note: Vehicles are delivered from the factory with pre-set caster, camber, and toe settings. When aligning a vehicle with factory settings, Eccentric Repair Bolts must be installed in order to adjust caster or camber. Toe is the only adjustment that can be made without installing the Eccentric Repair Bolts."
So Toe is adjustable as delivered from factoy. Caster & Camber are adjustable with Eccentric Repair Bolts.
