So does anyone know how to fix this at the house? I can't take mine to a shop b/c I can't drive up on any rack that I know of b/c of ride height.

Sounds like you just have some spring mods. You can put it up on stands and mess with the camber and toe but you will never get it straight without an alignment job. Toyota sells camber bolts but without the high dollar equipment at a proper alignment shop you will only be able to eyeball it. An alignment is about $60.00 If you can’t drive it to the shop bite the bullet and tow it in.

Sorry I'mnot responding to the thread but that is some incredible colorful job you did inside and out. Where can I see more of your car. Wow!

I’m getting ready to do another one so I’m selling this one, I am in between cameras so I don’t have any finished pictures yet. The car’s a lot nice now. I think I will have my new camera Monday. I will be taking a bunch of pictures for ebay but will also post some here, somewhere. If it doesn’t sell right away I will be at the downtown Visalia show on the 20th of May.

Eyeballing it will be better than it is now, I think it is the toe, and not so much the camber. I do have just spring mods, but it is LOW, I think my side skirts are about 4 and 1/2 inches from the ground. I can drive it and do all the time it is just that I can;t take it to any shop that I know of in this area b/c it is so low that I can't fit on the lifts. Any info on how and what to adjust for the toe whould be grat help.


Thanx agian
