Well I just got back from taking my car in for a lifetime alignment at Firestone...I don't really understand the results but I followed the advice of not needing a camber kit...Any imput and advice of these results would be appreciated.

Now let me break it down on what has recently been done to the vehicle...Car has never been in a accident either...I removed the old control arm mountet camber kits and am rolling on stock front control arms.

1991 Honda Civic Lx:
195-50-15 Nexen Tires
LS Mesh Wheels
Sprint Springs
2.5F & 2.25R Drop
Tokico Blue Shocks
New front wheel bearings
New Dorman UCA's with balljoints
New Moog lower balljoints
New Moog Inner and outer tie rods
New oem rta bushings
New manual rack and pinion conversion
New front brake pads
New axles
New motor and tranny

Did not replace the following:
Front lca's
Radius rods
Front stabalizer links
Rear lca's

Before I get lectured about taking the car to Firestone I got a lifetime alignment to any Firestone for $159.99 and can take my car in anytime when needed...The car does drive straight but would just like some opinions since the tech said I might need the front adjustable balljoints for camber and adjustable compensator arms on the rear since they are maxed out.

Camber looks just fine to me, My friend just got an alignment yesterday and hes runing -4.3 and -3.9 or something in front.
But they were able to get his toe into oe spec, which yours does look like its right on the money,(0.2-0.8 I beleve oem is)His rear however remind in oe spec, and he is dropped quite a bit more the 2.5 inches. It is a 97 civic so that may have something to do with it.

If this were me id defiently look into the rear toe adjusters, i just would not feel good about that much toe. However im no pro, so id be interested to see what someone that may be says.

You have that much toe out in the rear with the compensator arms maxed towards the center of the car? If so you have some bent stuff somewhere.

I would advise you to try to get the toe into spec with the OE compensator arms. Aftermarket adjustable compensator arms result in compensator arms with different lengths than stock, and different lengths side to side, which could result in unpredictable handling and tire wear characteristics.

so what items could be bent on the rear that could be throwing off the toe...we changed the rta bushings last week with new oem rta bushings and had them clocked at a angle since i am dropped so they wouldn't tear up...i didn't change out the stock lca's and am unsure on what compensator arm i have but im assuming its from a ef since the rta bushings were 3.170...in regards to the front am i gonna be ok with them readings...!!!
