HHR-SS Frt. end alignment specs.

Going to be installing my coilovers soon. Coilover caster plates are set a zero now. Need to know what degree caster I need to dial in. Thanks "Moon"

I'm glad you are doing these first, here is the report from an alignment on mine hope the number you are looking for is here. Ha Ha, this might be hard to do since it was my ford truck. Let me see if I can find the right one.

Nope I didnt' keep them they said it was right on, give them a ring.

I didn't think they would need adjustment there ?

Hey this thread raised another question for me.

What FRONT alignment spec.'s should we use if the 2lt suspension was changed to the SS suspension, as far as struts, shocks and springs all around?

Suggestions????

I think it's steering knuckles that define the geometry, so you would still be FE3-spec, but I could be wrong. The springs will lower it some, and may add some negative camber. There isn't that much difference between them anyway.
