Hi all.  I have a small amount of negative camber on the rear wheels and I'd
like to rid myself of it.  I know that many Spitfire owners don't mind it
and have presented arguments in favor of having it, but I'd like my wheels
to be straight up and down.  Different strokes for different folks and so on
and so on and shooby dooby dooby.

I just installed Koni shocks all the way around and left the factory
settings intact.  Will stiffening up the shocks a notch or two in the rear
do the trick?  Or do I have to remove the road spring and retension or
replace it?  Or is there something else, besides ditching the Koni's and
installing air shocks (I'd rather not go this route.  Thanks!
