How to Correct my Alignment
Alright, so here is my last alignment sheet. Some of my alignment angles still aren't in spec. I have a 1 inch drop with Eibach Springs, so I think I should be able to get everything aligned.
The Lexus tech told me that the alignment adjusters were frozen so that they could not correct some of the angles. They also told me I need new Toe Arms.
I was thinking about buying FIGS rear toe arms, but what should I buy to correct the other problem angles?
So far I have have already replaced the UCA's, Caster Arms, Tie Rods and Ball Joints as far as suspension goes.
Here is the alignment Sheet:
Front Left
Camber: -0.9* (-0.8 - 0.2)
Caster: 8.9* (7.1 - 8.1)
Toe: 0.02 (-0.03 - 1.18)
Front Right
Camber: -0.4
Caster: 8.6*
Toe: 0.01
Front
Cross Camber: -0.4 (-0.5 - 0.5)
Cross Caster: 0.2 (-0.5 - 0.5)
Total Toe: 0.02 (-0.05 - 0.35)
Rear Left
Camber -1.4* (-1.3 - -0.3)
Toe: -0.25* (-0.03 - 0.17)
Rear Right
Camber: -1.6*
Toe: 0.44*
Rear
Cross Camber: 0.2 (-0.5-0.5)
Total Toe: 0.19 (-0.07 - 0.33)
Thrust Angle: -0.35

Your rear left toe is pretty bad. Time to get new toe arms.
If -0.9 was the best they could do for the front left, then I would have asked to adjust the front right to -0.9 too. You want to minimize cross camber as much as possible....-0.9 is still very acceptable if they did this.
