As far as I know, you can not get recon yet for air bags. Make a call and see what they say.... 7332542

^^ AFAIK you can't get recon for air suspension... When you align your car to the requirements it needs then your vehicle is straight... No plus/minus degrees or positive/negative camber... But once you play with air then there is no telling that if your car is truly aligned or not because of the drastic change in wheel/suspension alignment... Hence that its impossible to get recon...

When I got my car aligned, The sheet will tell you if its okay... If the numbers are green then its strait, but if they come out red and the aligner can't adjust it by the camber plates then it won't pass...

No. It just needs to be within factory specs. The numbers are never a single specific number, but a range. It may be something like: Front Camber -0.5 to 0.8 degrees. Rear Camber -0.8 to 1.0 degrees, or something like that. As long as the actual camber falls within that factory spec it is considered aligned.
