Yeah, I got the same tool. I like it, but ended up using a PLS laser and tape measure. I believe I was somewhere close to -2.6, and I read that the tics on the plates were .35 +/-.05, so I set it at +5 tics. After getting it back on the ground, I think I should have gone with +4.5 tics, but its not bad for my primitive method. I don't think it will be easy to adjust the plates once they're installed since we can't reach them from the top. I'm guessing it's probably just as easy to pull the coilover, make the adjustment and reinstall.

Please let me know how it turns out once you get it professionally done.
