alignment specs
I know I know I used the search feature and this is what I came up with.
STREET
Caster: +1.5° to +2.5°
Camber: 0 to -.5°
Toe: 1/8"
I just actually got my suspension and stearing done and was wondering what are the specs I should look for. stock 4 leaf rear and one inch down with 620 springs in front.

I print out this information and take it to the alignment shop"
Please align to these specs “1960-1966 Mustang and Falcon Performance Alignment".
These specifications are in order of importance.
1. NO more than .25 degrees difference between driver’s side and passenger’s side.
2. +2.0 to +3.5 degrees caster.
NOTE: for cars with Adjustable strut rods. Please attain as much caster as possible using the shims (at least 1.5 to 2.0 degrees), and then use the adjustable strut rods to increase the caster and make the sides the same. Also, please note that the caster difference between the driver’s side and passenger’s side needs to have no more .25 degrees difference prior to the adjustment of the strut rods.
3. -.5 to 0 degrees camber. No positive camber, please. There is no problem having a slight variation from driver’s side to passenger’s side to account for the crown in the road.
4. 1/16" to 1/8” toe in
If you run into any problems attaining these specs, please call me (your phone number here).

Make sure your camber is 0 or negative, the factory style suspension and positive camber generally = outside tear wear(sometimes excessive depending on how you drive) and crappy handling.
