When setting up camber, caster, and toe, every change affects the other settings. I'm not sure I'm doing it right as it takes multiple attempts to get the readings in the ball park.
Currently I use gauges to get camber and toe, then eyeball the caster. I also measure all the lengths to make sure its relatively balanced.
Usually using something like the Awesomatix USA caster doodles with a hudy set up station is my choice to do it. However, if you set your camber on a set up station, you can then set thbe caster by removing all 4 wheels, putting the chassis on a flat surface, removing the outer hub screw and installing a long screw or turnbuckle in the screw hole. Measure the angle with a camber gauge or you can put the car back on the set up station and look at the caster angle on the hudy station (or any other station that is marked for caster.).
