Anyone used FIGS rear knuckle bushing?
They increase toe when accelerating because they squat. Stiffer suspension components reduce the amount it will squat. Oem specs take into account how the oem suspension is set up. Being that you have some aftermarket parts oem specs might not be exactly right for you. I’m always concerned whenever I see final alignment results still in the red zone.
Oh, and for every bump steer correction (made by adjusting the length of the traction arm), camber and toe had to be reset. Left side took maybe 10 iterations, the right took many, many more iterations.
Your final numbers look fine, expect the front and rear toe. The front should toe in slightly for more stable steering, but you're now towing out by a total of 0.20 degrees. Rear toe should also be slightly in, as mentioned, to help the rear end track better. I'd shoot for -0.05 deg total front and rear toe, if that's possible for an average alignment shop.
Lol, it'd be rare to have a 22 year old car have both camber adjustment cams be oriented the same on the left and right! How many hard potholes and curb hits have accumulated over two decades of fun? How many hard landings after cresting over sharp hills at speed?
I'm not talking about identical camber left and right. Look at the photos, the one on the right is oriented 180° to the one on the left. That doesn't happen by accident. Also, the car has just been aligned, there's no reason for them to have been bumped out of alignment at all if they were torqued properly

If your lower control arm bolts are moving it's because they're not installed properly. Unless by "drive aggressively" you mean driving into curbs and catching air off speed bumps, nothing should be changing.
HAHAHA. Na nothing like that. Well they aren’t moving per say but the alignment settings are not EXACTLY the same each time I go which i assumed is normal to move within the green range after driving in NYC horrible roads. Before replacing the rear knuckles and front steering rack bushings it would be in red after only a few weeks
