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. =20
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.

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.
