Is my alignment good with picture? Please advise
I got the car aligned last week and mechanic told me 2 of the front camber bolts left and right are seized and could not adjust, they tried to but the bolt won't move both front left and right and then they said my camber is good so no need to try more, it didn't need to said the mechanic, here the picture of my alignment setting, mechanic also said that if they break the bolt the whole Lower Control Arm need to be replace, can we just replace the bolts and bushing only ? why the Whole Lower Control Arm ? thanks in advance

What's wrong with the rear camber? It looks fine on the readout after the alignment was done.

Yes, it's in the "green"; however, they're half a degree apart from each other. To maximize handling performance and tire wear, it'd be best to get them more in-line with each other. With it being so far apart as well, you might have a possibly worn bushing or dare I say a slightly bent arm.

here the picture, this time the owner re-do the alignment and the car now perfect,
But we have encountered another seized problem, today i asked them to change the transfer case fluid the front, the drain bolt for front transfer case is seized no matter what they tried, they almost break the bolt and bolt now looks squeeze without thread, he gave me a penetration spray bottle he ask me to spray it everyday until the next oil change they will try again, anyone of you have any solution ?
i don't get lucky with Lexus, one problem to another, how could 2011 Lexus seizes too much ? now i'm stuck with overdue front transfer case !

Though in spec according to the printout, that does seem like lot of toe in the rear there. Many have said to get a close as possible to 0; but that can only be done with adjustable toe arms. Same with getting the rear camber spec closer to each other. Depending on how long you want to keep the car, the investment of the arms might help save you money down the road on tires.

Personally I would get a new drain plug and drill out the old one.
