judging by your pictures - you appear to be using that tool a little rough, i saw some scratches on your wheels - you should not approach your alignments while in hulk form

great job obviously and very cool for sharing

Ha, I didn't even think about that being in the pick. When we meet someday you'll see my HULKNESS is not to be feared.

^ That's an Enzo (F60) in the back.


Scott- I saw the thread; nice tool. Camber seems easy enough to measure with a digital level, but really cool idea on measuring overall toe.

i had them on my car and then i switched to the Eibach Pro-Kit, the eibach gave me a little more drop and little stiffer

h-tech 7mm front drop 4mm rear
s-tech 17mm front 14mm rear
(per z1 website)
