Help, alignment can’t get more than 1.5 camber

I’m at a performance alignment shop and like many others have experienced, they can get more than 1.5 degrees of camber in front. I have searched the forums and read a bunch of threads about alignment but have found nothing to use to explain to the tech how to reach 2.0 degrees. I know the mystery bolt can push the strut back if it goes too far, what is the secret to getting to 2 negative. He has loosened the bolts and is using the weight of the car to get to 1.5. What else is needed to get the full 2?

Thanks

Fire drill over, I figured out the key words are “put in the bolt and tap the head with a hammer while the strut bolts are loose”. With that it dropped to 2.4 degrees instantly.

Thanks to all those who have gone before, especially those who posted pics which were key to convincing them 2.4 was possible.

Also, Custom Alignment in Mt. View, CA now knows how to perform a track alignment on a 1LE.
