Just a Skosh or so. What would you do????

-.5* camber is just fine for the majority of street cars. More can be beneficial for hard cornering or on a car that is frequently driven on winding roads, but it depends on the rest of the suspension and tire set up too. I run -1*, but I also run 275’s up front, and tires that wide change some things from an alignment perspective. Even then, if I had -1* camber and only +1.5* caster I would absolutely trade some of that camber for more caster. That’s not enough caster.

I generally set max caster first, so, front UCA adjuster set so it pushes the front UCA arm all the way “out”, rear adjuster set so it pulls the rear UCA arm all the way in.

3/16” is a lot of toe too, with a fresh rebuild you want more like 1/16”.

On a side point, "Are you sure" the gauge is accurate?" I don't measure caster by a gauge, I measure camber, and figure caster from two readings, taken by turning the wheels in/ out. So far as camber, all that amounts to is in/ out tilt and you can at least check the gauge for zero on a plumb surface, and you can check THAT with a level. Rotate the level so the bubble is reversed, and any error should stay on the same end if the level is accurate, IE you put a level on a vertical column, and the bubble, say, "edges" to the post side. of the index mark on the bubble. If you turn the level around, and if it's accurate, the bubble should still be on the "post" side. If it goes outside, the level is "off."

The Fastrax gauge calculates caster the same way. You’re just taking two camber measurements with the wheels turned and getting the caster reading from that. You just do it by adjusting the bubble level on the gauge.

The biggest thing with the Fastrax gauge is making sure you’ve got it attached to the wheel correctly and in a way that’s repeatable. The temptation is to hammer the height adjustment to make it stay put, but you can actually distort the frame of the gauge if you tighten it too much and that’ll mess with your readings. It takes some practice to get repeatable results.
