Just broke my 1980's Crapsman vice, so I'm up for purchasing one of those Wilton's if available.

Another upvote for ViceGrip's vices - the real deal.

If you can't get one of Vicegrip's vices, see if you can get one of Vicegrip's grips - they're really good, too!

Mike, how did everything work out? Get it all dialed in? Lift is available when you're ready to change your fluids.

Alignment Numbers: Front - Camber 2.4, Toe 1/16 out Rear - Camber 2.2, Toe 1/16 out After perusing a ton of posts on P9 and CR, most said to go with 0 to 1/16 Toe in up front but Roger suggested trying the slight toe out and if that is too aggressive I will adjust it to 0. In between I traded in my Cooper S for a loaded 09' 370Z, my new/used daily driver so I have been having fun with that as well. Should be fine as a DD but it feels big, heavy, and sloppy. The car is a pig compared to the Cayman. Plus it's a cheater car with an AT. I'll catch up with you offline so we can set up a day to get both our cars taken care of. Thanks again for all your help and a heated garage.

After some trial and error on removing the first assembly, pretty staight forward. Having the right tools, especially the spring compressor makes a world of difference. I found it quite a bit less complicated than than on my car, a 1969 911 where you have to index the torsion bars to set the ride height.
