For simple toe adjustments yes this works. But camber is a whole nother story.

very nice indeed!

Is the toe-in set keeping the wheel spreader factor in mind? I assume one has to set more toe- in to compensate for a lack of spreader assist.

And caster too!

I was surprised how much the front wheels move when you use a (DIY) spreader bar with the wheels on slip plates.
