as far as i know both front and rear aren't adjustable, someone can correct me. i am surprised with 2" front your front is in spec. even the 2gs with full adjustment couldn't get it close to factory spec. all you can do is adjust toe to compensate

The tech who aligned my car is my future brother in law and allowed me to go into the garage at his work and watch him align it on the rack. He told me there were camber adjusters on the front, but none on the rear when he looked it up on the computer via the service manual disc. Only toe could be adjusted for the rear.

I emphasize near factory specs, not actual. The readings for the front left were -1.5 camber, 5.6 caster and .05 toe. Right front was -1.6 camber, 5.8 caster and .04 toe. My rear camber is out by more than a degree over factory. It sits at -2.3 left and -2.6 right. This was the best that he could get it and the front tires seem to wear evenly so far, even though I've only driven about 1k since it was aligned in early February.

I have AWD on DF210's so it's actually more like 1.5"-1.8" for the front since the front strut design is different from RWD models.

The car is more affordable now, so I think it is the right time for companies to start making such parts.
