Default Alignment question

Hi guys

I got my alignment done on the 4th and it was out of specs front and rear.

FR - 1.75
R - 2.5

Because of money I bought a rear kit and had it installed. Will get a front kit maybe in 2 weeks. Can I get a rear alignment now to adjust the rear specs to factory and then after getting the front kit, I can just adjust the front wheels only. Or will I need a 4 wheel alignment when I get the front kit installed?

Ck with the alignment shop if they're willing to do just a 2 wheel alignment. 1.75 on front I would leave it. What are your toe angles?

I personally would want more camber in the rear and less toe on front and back.

Considering the spring used the working height with people onboard would give it more camber and less toe so that looks okay. I would give it a tad more rear camber if you encounter tail wants to slip out when coming out of a turn.
