Default Jag rear end alignment "how to"?

Can someone point me to a "how to" on how to do a jag rear alignment? Search didn't turn anything up.

Thanks!
Chris

Toe-in isn't adjustable, unless your lowers are bent, and camber is adjustable by shims between the halfshaft and carrier. Best to get a Jag service manual to familiarize yourself.

Toe in "is" adjustable,it just takes a little time to do it. The shims behind the lower control arm mounting plates on the diff,adjust your toe in. Once that is all done I recommend installing track rods to control the flex in the lower control arm.Have a look in my gallery and you will see what I did. The reason that i faced them towards the rear is because that way the are longer No1, and 2, they are in tension as opposed to compression so you can use a lighter rod. Also if you use left and right rod ends you can get a little fine tuning on the toe in.Ihave driven and raced my car like this for 50000miles with no hint of a problem.
