I think people generally aim for between 0 and 1/2 deg negative with an
unloaded car. I see some people prefer a bit more negative but 1/2 deg seems
in line with the spec for a street car.
Make sure whoever does the alignment on the rear understands how the
adjustable brackets work and the correct method for adjusting them. The
threaded bolt is not meant to be used to physically move the adjustable part
of the bracket or it will shear.

Subject: [6pack] TR6 Alignment Specs.
I have an appointment tomorrow to get my 6 aligned I sent a post the other day
requesting the preferred alignment specs for a 6 and still need some help. In
Bentley's page 45 under general specs they list the rear camber as 1 deg, neg,
+/- 1/2, (-1/2 to -1 1/2 deg). In the rear suspension section , 64.25.17, they
specify the rear camber range from +1 to -1/4. If my aging memory is correct,
I recall that the preferred target is 1/2 deg neg. I have installed the
adjustable brackets so I should be able to get it right on. Is 1/2 neg correct
for the rear camber?
Thanks for the help.
