Hi Tom, I'm very interested in your opinion on the alignment specs.

What makes you say the toe specs are wrong?

Are the manual specs different than the factory specs?

What do you think they /should/ be and why do you think that? Any drawbacks to your approach vs Volvo's manual specs?

I have the following info which I obtained from the Volvo manual:
