Continuing to follow thread.

I appreciate the info and feedback.

hawk02, I am no expert in alignment but it looks like rear camber my have moved from center when the bolts were tightened.

I was just going off my personal experience doing alignments (as part of my job) over the last 15 years. It’s pretty easy for your angles to change as you tighten things down. Or as you adjust the other side of the car. I find myself going back on a regular basis. On some cars, the toe will actually change every time as the eccentric is torqued. So you almost need to anticipate this before tightening everything down. If you don’t, it’ll be off once properly torqued. It’s like trying to hit a moving target.
I understand that the last you that you want to do is tell a tech how to do his job, but given the direction of deviation from center this might be the case.

Keep us posted. Thanks.
