Front Alignment Question
Just a quick question for someone who knows front suspension adjustments.
Will changing the camber setting with the stock eccentric bolt change the toe setting. I was told it would. But after reviewing the service manual it doesn't mention this for the front suspension. It does make a clear note that the rear camber MUST be adjusted before adjusting rear toe. But nothing like that for the front.
Anyone know for sure.
I trust answers from this section more than the suspension area.

yes it will. Adding negative camber will increase the toe-in by quite a bit.
From my own practical experaince,
1) you need to set the rear camber first. If I want to get -1.5 camber in the rear, I set it to -1.6 before setting the toe.
2) then set the rear toe (this will change the camber slightly)
3) recheck the camber. It should be at -1.5
4) if the camber is not set to where you want, repeat from step #1
