@Bigjimmy At the risk of sounding like an idiot I think they just need to get it as close to factory spec as they can.

The camber should be close to even on both LF and RF at +.5 degrees. The caster should be +2.5 to +4.5 degrees with about a half-(.5) degree lead on the right to allow for road crown.

The toe in should be -.05 to +.15 degrees on both sides.

Ride height should be even on both sides and of course the air pressure should be even.

This info is for close to stock rig but unsure if different on a leveled rig.

Yes, Scotland you’ll need to swap the US spec for caster with respect to left/right. Or start driving on the correct side of the roads. :D

My truck is lifted 6”/and I’m using stock alignment parameters and it’s great.

I always seem to forget to ask Europe members which side of the road and which side is steering wheel on.

Thank you for that.
Absolutely no chance of my local garage knowing the stand specs.
Having a Yukon Denali XL over here is only slightly less strange than rocking up in a flying saucer
But then petrol(gas) is £1.30 a litre here........or about $6.50 a gallon
