    Huh?

    That was the result of my "home alignment" on my Tundra. http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/suspension/252256-how-do-alignment-home.html

    For street vehicles you want a little more negative camber and a little more positive caster on the right side to compensate for road crowning. Les Schwab didn't charge me anything. Just put it on the machine, measured, and pulled it off as it's right where it should be.

    Honestly, I always took my stuff to firestone and told them to do it. Always assumed they needed to be as close to 0.0 as possible.

    Definitely not. Only one you want 0 is toe.

    Firestone has the most incompetent fuckwads in the world working for them. They are all just mental midgets barely making over minimum wage and crooks. 5+ alignments later...which included two worse alignment than when I came in with, and them forgetting to tighten one of the cam bolts and it loosening almost all the way out on the freeway on my way home. I told them to fuck off and refund me ALL my money....which they did. One time they fucked up the alignment they tried to tell me I needed new outer tie rods when I brought it back and they threw it on the lift. They even quoted me on two new ones (factory style). I was like "mother fucker...I don't even have factory outer tie rods! Go look at my truck asshole...and then come back with a better story."

    Yep. Driver preference often dictates the preferred numbers. I like a lot more caster (3+ degrees) on my toy truck and as close to 0 cross camber, but everyone has their own preferences.

    You'd want it to track true in sand/dirt anyway so the 0 on the cross camber is understandable. Still trying to visualize caster, reading up on it now.
