C43 Alignment Specs

Anybody have C43 Alignment specs anywhere? I don't really want to goto the dealer to get an alignment when my buddy's shop can do it. We just don't have the specs.

alright... i'm gonna assume suspension-wise, it's the same settings for c36 and c43..

front
camber: -1.28 to -0.62
caster: 5.05 to 6.05
toe: 0.12 to 0.29

rear
camber: -2.05 to -1.05
toe: 0.22 to 0.34

Thanks for the info Steve but most alignment machines have C36 specs in their updates. It's the C43 that is missing. Anybody know if they are the same?

cosmetics and engine changes aside, the suspension setup is roughly the same except for spring rates and shock rates.. anyway, ur local dealer may be able to help u find the exact c43 alignment specs. give them a call. gl.
