Re: Scrib... I did a little reading before I left tonight... Ingalls Engineering...
Hey Scrib! I got to read just a little tonight... Just wanted you to know I was doing my homework! :) ~Jack~
And they said....
Always consult a ride height specification book prior to beginning alignment. If out of specification, attempt to correct. Changes in ride height from factory specifications affect camber. As a vehicle ages, the suspension has a tendency to sag. The weight of the vehicle can cause springs to weaken. Springs can also be damaged by excessive vehicle loading or abuse. Another factor to consider is sagging of center support or crossmember. Modifications to the vehicle such as raising or lowering the suspension or changing the total weight of the vehicle can also affect camber.

Can effect toe also...........
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ Scott, how does ride height "effect" toe?
scrib abell ~:~ When you lower or raise the front, it will move the tie rods out of there correct position, usually giving you a little toe in. If you look at them and the center link as a straight bar across the front, when you raise or lower, the outer sides attached to the spindals move up or down, but the inner sides at the center link stay in the same place, thus giving you a little toe-in. Did that make since? p.s.
Were you trying to get me to say *angle* Scrib? :)
