Default XJR Alignment Help

All,

Went to get the snows put on the car yesterday. She was maybe pulling a hair to the left, but very minimal and running smooth. When I went in they did an alignment check and the toe on the front left was out of spec, so I said sure go ahead and do an alignment.

I get back in the car, it now pulls hard left. Tech only made some adjustments stating the rears can't ve adjusted and the camber on both front wheels was at the end of travel. I can't say I trust the place, but am still struggling to get JTIS installed, so if I could get the factory settings I would greatly appreciate that. I will give the full rundown of the data I saw, and what the recommended was because I feel those here may find it interesting.

Also potentially befuddling the issue, the right rear was low on air today when I got home and back to the car. MAy be a slow leak, we will see when I get up in the morning... :/

LF

Final Orig Spec
-1.0 -1.1 -.5 to .5 Camber (took to max travel)
6.1 6.1 4.0 to 8.0 Caster
.11 -.04 .04 to .21 Toe


RF

Final Orig Spec
-1.6 -1.7 -1.0 to .0 Camber (stated at max travel)
7.1 7.1 4.0 to 8.0 Caster
.12 .12 .04 to .21 Toe

LR (stated not adjustable, based on forums though this seems to be shimmable?)
Final Orig Spec
-1.4 -1.4 -1.2 to .1 Camber
.12 .12 .04 to .21 Toe

RR

Final Orig Spec
-1.3 -1.3 -1.2 to .1 Camber
.21 .21 .04 to .21 Toe

Any thoughts on where I should try and do this myself (tape measure check a friend recommends for a basic sanity check), take it back to them and tell them the pull got worse or just bit the bullet and try and find someone who I can trust what they are doing.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
