I just bought a 1990 325is. It's sitting on old shocks a springs right now, but I plan to replace them along with the bushings. First job I did to the car was replacing the steering rack and tie rods, after which I brought the car to an alignment shop. Here is the current alignment:
Could the left/right discrepancies be due to worn shocks/springs/bushings, or are they far enough off that there could be some frame damage? If replacing the shocks/springs/bushings doesn't correct the alignment, should I buy some camber/castor/toe adjustment kits (the weld-on type for the rear and the strut housing type for the front)?
I posted this question earlier in the springs, shocks, sways, and steering section but it occurred to me that it might fit better here.
