Checking Stock Camber / Toe In/Out / And Tracking
Heya folks,
During the last week I have had to replace the rear trailing arm on both sides as the can slid into a kerb, bending the existing trailing arms. I have finished the work however visually both sides like slightly different.
Is there anyway to check front/rear camber and toe in, as well as adjust the tracking without having to take the car to a shop. I understand that camber isn't adjustable however I need to know if it's out before I start replacing any other parts (Upper/Lower arms etc.)
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,

im pretty sure you have to take it to a shop unless you have an alignment machine. at a shop they put these laser things on your wheels and the computer tells you when your allighnment is in spec.
I know about the alignment systems, however I was wondering more whether there was a home grown method of getting a rough idea how much out or in your suspension gemoetry is.
