I'd be cranking in a couple degrees of negative camber for extensive

Hi Clare,
Good idea. I had her bring it over today where I cranked her up to 40psi on
all four tires. I'll keep an eye on it as I see her every day.

o Caster gauge (to measure caster & calculate camber)

You got that backwards - - - - You MEASURE camber and calculate
caster (unless you have PROPER equipment which measures both)

Yeah. That was a thinko. Thanks for catching it. We measure camber, which
is then used to calculate caster, which isn't adjustable in many cases
anyway.

One tool I might also need is a leveling tool so that all four wheels are
on a screw-mounted plate. Do you have a recommendation for that tool?

It might take a REAL PRO to modify the camber properly likely require
installation of either camber plates or long lower control arms (or
offset bushings)

There is a difference between a tuneup and an engine overhaul, where the
caster, camber, and toe measurements will likely only result in the need
for changes if they're well off the spec, and if the OEM setup allows for
it.

For example, while you can measure anything, on the bimmer, the only thing
an OEM setup can change is rear camber & toe, and then front toe, in that
order - and that's it.
