Randall, 

I just borrowed a real camber measurement device and it says it is 1.75 
positive on both sides unladen. When I had the measurement with me sitting in 
it, I went to +1.0. I weigh more than 150 lbs. When two people are in it, it 
will most likely STILL be +0.5. 

So, I will let things settle more for now. It only has maybe 10 miles on it 
after the suspension mods. Then it seems likely I will need to get the 
Goodparts adjustable brackets. I think I need to lose at least 0.75 degrees on 
both sides. 

-Tony

FWIW, the spec in the TR6 workshop manual is -1 degree, +/- 0.5 degrees in "2 
up condition". Which I take to mean laden with 
passenger and driver.
