Default if you own a home alignment kit please give your input

I'm forecasting at least 3-5 alignments this year, so I'm thinking I might be just as well off spending the money on an alignment kit an learning to do it myself.

I'm mainly interested in accurately setting the toe and camber after I make height adjustments or spring changes.

The strings thing I've tried, and found it just isnt easy, quick, or accurate enough for me. If you have a kit that measures toe and or camber please make any recommendataions or descriptions of the features or your particular kit.

these toe plates work pretty well and are as accurate as youll get using handtools. it just takes two ppl to take a measurement.

any caster/camber bubble guage should work to measure camber as well.

They show up on the third page of results in Google, so a google search is no good.

Thanks for the link.
