When I went Ltuned supension (back in 99) Lexus dealership had difficulty (either access or getting the right numbers on the rack). I had to go back to them within a week and since then there has been no problems.

The key is finding the shop with most experience in your area. If you have opted for aftermarket stuff, you may not think of the dealerhsip, but give them a call.Being familiar with a car has got a lot to do with it.

[In my case, I was given the impression that the tech fudged the numbers (as I recall there were no new numbers published for Ltuned suspension). I was worried for first few hundred miles and as it got into thousands with no abnormal wear pattern ... feel was good after the second fix.... I have been happy.

The L-Tuned is mild enough for the dealers to get the alignment specs very close. The HAs can go much lower. There are no camber kits currently available for the 2GS. There are a few that are in R&D (and has been for awhile) but nothing released yet.
