DIY Front Alignment Troubles

another measurement that can be done is the king pin inclination. this has to be done on turn/slip plates with the brakes locked.

what this will tell you is if the upright is bent. if the KPI is the same each side but the camber is different then something is bent. if they are out by the same amount then it's down to adjustment.

the KPI is the angle of the ball joints, the camber is the angle of the wheel/upright.
