ATTN: techs or alignment guys
guys, according to the hunter machine, you need a special tool to adjust camber/caster from the strut tower BUT.......one of my co-workers says you don't need the special tool. what do you guys use????

The tool just makes it easier. I've not actually aligned a thirdgen (we don't have an alignment rack at our shop, and none came in when I worked where we did have one.) but I do see how it would help, but a steady hand and you'd probably get it with out the tool. The tool is basically a turn-buckle to hold the strut mountwhile you tighten the bolts.
