I have a 2002 Protege ES...I recently plowed into a curb and pretty much destroyed my left side rims and tires. Luckily there was no body damage.
After having an alignment done with the new rims and tires, it turns out that the Camber measurements for the rear left wheel are way off the charts. My questions are:
-What are the factory/general specs for Camber degrees for the rear suspension?
-What kind of suspension do the 2002 Proteges have? Is it Short Arm, Long Arm Suspension Systems, Torsion, Modified Strut, McPherson Strut, or Wishbone Suspension?
The reason I ask all of this, is because I have access to vehicle damage assesment tools and I want to make sure that the shop my car is at is not making an attempt to make up damages that are not there. Whenever it comes to spending money, I don't trust a shop.
Please help!!! Thanks.
