Re: Got everything aligned. Good specs?

Yup. Both negative. To get the .5 Camber , my UMI strut mounts are maxed out, Both sides. For caster its maxed out as well on the plate but the top adjustment for the strut with the umi plates have tons of room. I can still move the strut back 3/4 of an inch.

Looks OK to me...

Expect the inside edge of the left tire to rub at the bottom outer rear of the fender in hard right turns, and the right tire to do the same on left turns, from having the spindle set so far rearward. Just comes with the territory I guess.
