Default Help !! Big alignment problem !!!

Last weekend i installed my H&R springs with the spc rear camber arms.

I then put on my new 20" wheels and waited till monday to get it all aligned.

I finally get to the shop and the guy starts working on it but he starts taking wayyyy too much time so i go inside to see whats up and he tells me he can't adjust the rear driver side to proper specs.

Its funny that the right side didn't give him any trouble but the left was the complete opposite.

He told me everytime he adjusted the camber/caster to the driver side the toe would unbalance.

The he tried to re-adjust the toe then the camber would unbalance.

WTF !!

after two hours he gave up and told me he would have to put me to -2.5 since he wasn't able to bring both to -1.3 to -1.8. The toe in the rear is sitting at 0 on both sides but its the -2.5 thats killing me right now.

The hole reason why I wanted the SPC rear camber arms was to correct the negative camber to provent uneven tire wear.

Has this ever happened to anyone before??

Should I just go to another shop for an alignment ??
