On my 95 850 the bolt holes holding the lower end of the strut are enlarged enough so you can shift the position a little before tightening. When disassembling I marked the position carefully so I could restore the same alignment.

Only a couple of degrees of variation is possible. What is the specific problem? If you are unable to get the alignment in spec is something bent?

I don't believe anything is bent, however Firestone alignment tech says out of spec and can't adjust. Took it in originally for pulling to the right. thanx for your advice, I'll look for that.
