Quicktrick alignment

Anybody set their alignment with the Quicktrick tool? Im about to do mine. So far the only tip i have is to use bungees to hold the bars in place while u take the measurements.

My only gripe about it is you have no relation to the rear tires, at least with a string box you have the full footprint from the rear tires and you can get even L/R toe. With that front-only design you only have TOTAL toe.

​Its kind of hard to beat a digital 4 wheel aligment but I still use the string box and camber plate to get things very close after replacing components.

The front you want set at 0.04" left and right for a total of 0.08. This is the maximum value in the FSM but there was a Nissan TSB for Z/G cars to set front toe at max to prevent tire feathering. Rear I think I'm at... 0.07 for left and right, this G is just a highway daily driver right now. FSM has a much broader range of rear toe, just make sure you're symmetrical on both L/R sides.
