Need Help With Alignment Numbers Please
I just put the Eibach Pro kit on my car(02 Z28) and went and got it aligned. I just want to know if the numbers they set it are good or if I should go back and get it changed. The car seems to ride fine now but the guys at the shop didnt seem to sure about what the had it set at. I dont do any auto cross just drag strip and 90% of my miles are on the highway. Here are the numbers the car is set at now(left to right):
Front
Caster: 6.7 6.9
Camber: -.1 -.1
Toe: +.05 +.05 Total +.10
Rear
Camber: -.2 -.3
Toe: .0 -.05 Total -.05
Thrust Angle: .0
And on a side note Im getting alot of squeaking out of the front. Not really sure where its coming from and it only started to do after the alignment.
Thanks

the setting are close to thoes which I like
camber is a little low for street, but close enough
caster is ok a little more than I would run, car should track straight (rule of thumb, more caster straighter at high speed, but harded on steering parts,think of a bike with extended forks the longer the forks the more caster the harder it is to turn cornors, COULD cause little wear on sides of tires IF a lot of turning) toe looks good, thrust angle looks good, rear may walk small amount to the left only under hard acc. I like a little + setting
all in all looks ok, I would not go back to change align. as I think it is close
just my .02' Johnny
