why would this happen ?
to make a long question short. I recently lowered my car, the mech. let me sit in the drivers seat just to see what would happen, and for some reason the neg camber on the right front increased and the neg camber on the left side decreased, what gives?
I would think the neg camber on the left side would increase.
Not even KW can tell me why that might happen.

sorry
The car was on a Hunter alignment rack when I sat in it, thats how I could watch the neg camber increase on the right and decrease on the left.
I weigh 250 pounds.
Left = drivers side
Right = passenger side.

My car does the same. When i do my alignment at home with artificial weight in the drivers seat it reads exactly 1.8, and then when i take it to the alignment shop to have it double checked (without the artificial weight of the driver) the camber on the passenger side reads less, and the driver side reads more.
The only thing i could put it down to was that car itself leans when the weight is added and removed, but i'm not sure.
