depends on how much adjustment needs to be made...i think there is minimal adjustment available on the stock setup...maybe someone who has done suspension mods already can chime in on this...as I haven't even looked since I am still undecided on what to do suspension wise yet...

Yes.

Front Camber, Caster, and Toe are all adjustable, and rear Camber and Toe are adjustable.

JIC will be releasing some more suspension items in the near futrue that will allow more adjustment. The current setup can be adjusted but is limited in some respects but if you looking to just adjust back to the stock specs after the springs and rims then you will be OK.

yep,

i had my car up on our alignment rack last month to correct a slight pull to the right and can confirm that indeed we have pretty decent camber and caster corrections available from the factory.

not many imports give you caster and camber adjustments from the factory, most of the later cars require aftermarket kits.

setting the alignment on the 8 was cake!
