Front Wheel Alignment (Toe only) 200 1991

I would second Anils thoughts that Art is an amazing resource for volvo 240 anything.

Art, is it bad form to ask related questions in this thread that aren't digging for information from the OP but still on topic? Does NOT relaxing the tensions in the suspension cause other problems in the geometry?

I did my alignment on a 'probably level' asphalt parking lot and was able to dial in the specs to get a good alignment, however, I never rolled the vehicle 10' or bounced it to 'relax' the suspension. The alignment still seems great even after 3-5k miles on the vehicle and since then and no major wear on the tires or drifting at speed.

I never paid attention to the steering wheel position when I did it (it was the first alignment I ever did and was rushed to get it done), so eventually I'll be correcting that anyway. Just wondering if I need to do this extra bouncing/relaxing when I make that fix.
