It's probably a good idea to have someone do it for you. It sounds as if
your are describing a package of shims that are used to align the front
end in any case. 

You may have them check the alignment of the rear as well. I believe
that there are shims behind the body mounts for the radius arms. If you
feel adventurous, you could place some GT6+ or MKIII arms in
there...they are adjustable.
