I brought the coupe in after work and set about getting the rear suspension fixed up. You can see from the pic that the rear lower joints were pretty whooped. They're even worse than they look.

I hadn't noticed before that it had the early rear upper arms. Luckily we had the updated bolt kit needed to swap in the new style arms. The new longer arms bolted in without much fuss.

Onto the alignment rack and measurements were taken. Initial rear camber was 57 minutes on both sides. The toe was also even at 23 minutes per side. At the shop by myself at this point with nobody to high five. Still had to take a minute for a happy dance. The rear toe still had a lot of adjustment. I locked both sides at 13 minutes. There was enough adjustment left to pull it into negative numbers.

After tweaking the front toe and taking the final measurements I ended up with a perfect 1 degree on the left rear and 59 minutes on the right. . I've only driven it home but its never been better. Western slope here I come!
