I often mount the tires that i want to run and set the ride height from there. Toe out at the front, i sorta eye ball it and i am off.
The question is how to you set toe out for the front using the Hudy station - every time the servo centers, it's a different 0...it does not return to 0 on the hudy transparent measurement ruler..so how the heck does one measure toe out if I can't zero it everytime?
as for the camber, i use the hudy setup station for the camber. mount the tires, run the track and adjust for an even tire wear all round.
a nice to have...imho
The way I messure toe. I do not turm on servo. I get one side to read at zero on clear top plate, then slide plate over and messure othe side, 2 would be 1 degree on each side, 4 would be 2 degrees on each side. I useally put mine on 3. I then set other tire at zero and recheck useing other side. I compress shocks a few times and recheck. really doesn't matter how you check it as long as you do it same way every time.
