Default tried to get car aligned, came out kind of wrong :(

I read the alignment printout after getting my 98 LS aligned. It seems they just made it worse or not any better than before. example, camber was left unchanged with front left at +0.1* right at -0.8*, rear left toe at 0.0*, rear right toe at 0.18*.

I have a question, is camber adjustable on the 98 LS400? I need to make sure it is before I take it back.

TIA

yes, camber and toe are adjustable all around, caster is also adjustable in the front.

yeah the alignment tech should be able to dial in everything back to factory specs (it shouldn't have deviated too far in the first place), unless you had some previous suspension/frame damage.
