I said "by my spec". IMO all mfgrs specs are designed for the mentality of
the monkeys that use the align machines, as is the design of the machines
themselves. So tires wear faster and the cust comes back for new tires and
another allignment, good business? Castor is the better place to correct
for special conditions. Why I have long ago resorted to doing my own
alignments.
