i need to change all the bushes joints on the front end, everything
right now the front end is not set correctly, it's wearing the tires funny and scrubbing badly on the right side, the tracking is set correctly
now here comes the fun part, setting it all back to how it should be, i DO NOT want to take it in and have it done, in the past i've paid out a lot of money to have it all done, and the job was not done, the van wore the tires out unevenly, i took it back, their answer was i much have hit the front end and knocked it out of true
so i got no where, and don't want to shell out money we don't have, to find ourselves in the same situation
so i want to do it, has anyone done it them selves ?
is there a recommended camber gauge

I think this could help.

(I didn't see this in the FAQ's, can a moderator add it under the 'alignment section'?)
