How much negative camber have you gotten out of the front stock? SS non-1LE models

Title question and did you have to do anything excessive?

I'm stuck at -1.5 and I'm not thrilled about it. I was hoping to get as close to -2 as possible, but they shop gave up at -1.5. I trust they did everything within reason, but not anything some people would do themselves.

I was able to get -2 out of the front on mine.

Loosen the upper and lower bolt on the knuckle but don't take them off all the way. With an impact and a wrench on the upper nut and bolt push the top of the rotor in as far as you can go and when pushing hit the impact and lock it into place. the tighten the lower bolt. Thats how I managed to get -2.

Best my mechanic could to was -1.75 even Front. And it took two tries.

I guess there's some variability there in these cars.

-2.1° Front.
-2.4° Rear.

That's what my local Chev dealership was able to achieve. I asked that they try to get to -2.5° front and rear. They said they couldn't get more out of the front because the wheel was contacting the strut.

Not too sure about that but come spring I may go in for a realignment and sit in the car for it (I'm 210Lbs). Worth it to do it with me in the car? . I'd like a little less in the rear and more in the front.

Just re-did mine. -1.9 one side. The other maxed at -2.1
Rear topped at 1.4 If you want to stay at positive toe.

Every car will be a little different.
