The tool that I referred to above is:

HD CAMARO/FIREBIRD CAMBER TOOL

• Adjusts camber of 1993 and newer Camaro and Firebird automobiles
• Heavy-duty design allows camber and caster adjustment with weight on vehicle


Part#: CT88HD Price: $89.20

This tool is available from Matco tools. I am sure that Snap-On and the other tool vendors sell them too. You really need two of them to do the job properly.

Here is the link so that you may look at the tool:

This tool allows us to pull in or push out the camber and caster on the vehicle.

Did your mechanic at Colony Tire use tools like this to align your F-Body? Possibly your caster and camber settings were fine and didn't need any adjustment other than a toe-in adjustment. Did you just now lower your car and have it aligned or was it lowered and aligned some time back and now you have experienced an alignment problem and had the car re-aligned? With my experience in lowering F-Body cars, I haven't seen one yet that after it was lowered that Caster, Camber and Toe-In were all way out and needed to be adjusted back in. The process of installing lowering springs changes the ride height of the car and changes the geometry of it.
