no because what they're saying is that if the parts were not installed correctly, then that would affect the alignment, regardless of tweaking the alignment settings. best to get the parts checked

Depends on the hypothetical error.

If you just installed the spings, and haven't gotten an alignment post-installation, then it's critical that you get one. Your values are way off, for sure!

I don't think caster can be adjusted, but certainly camber and toe (to a small degree). If you've already gotten the post-install alignment, then you may want to consider your options... if it really bugs you, and you've got time, might want to break it down just to be sure everything's right and in place.... but it's a lot of work for a minor annoyance.

Personally, I'd just bring it to an alignment shop that knows what they're doing, and let them have at it.

No I've had these springs on almost two years, I just switched the shocks from the stocks to the Tokicos. The last alignment I got was about a year ago. I don't really want to break everything down for something that small haha, I think I'll just get another alignment done.

Thanks again :D
