06 mr suspension on 03, alignment question??

i purchased a complete stock 06 mr suspension from a member on this forum to put on my 03 that had the knocking front end problem that many people complain of, and it worked 8000 miles later no cluncking.

question is, when i installed it i got a alignment with 03 specs, should i have gotten a alignment with the specs of the 06 mr? i read somewhere that there is a diffrennce in ride hieght from the 03 suspension to the 06 mr, it was minimal but everybody knows that every little thing affects how these cars behave.

does anybody know which alignment specs i should go with?

If you have an 06 MR susp. Id do it to the 06 specs. Personally, Id set the tow to zero though.

Do zero toe front and rear, and set negative camber to -1 to -1.5 up front and -1 in the back.
