Camber accuracy

In spite of hottest climate yesterday, performed I the frontal camber adjustments on XH200 Opel Vectra following strut shock absorber replacements last week.
Whenever I adjust the wheel alignments, I remember the fact and the truth below.
Unbalanced frontal negative camber application causes unexplainable unpleasant driving feel for every vehicle.
Though self steering reactions on both sides tries to go straight, another factors like thrust and uneven rear alignments cause unexpected reactions on the steering.
In such a circumstance driver is obliged to concentrated to keep straight running with continuous adjustment without conciousness, leading nervous fatigue.
We must recognize the fact that even expensive devices have not enough accuracy on camber scaling and adjusting to talk about the value in seconds revel, because of the the methods and device constructions.
Remember any specific steering habits do not exist, another words, any habit are caused by ill setting of wheel alignments and geometric constructions.
So good corrections of them make it possible to establish the best alignments by adjusting precisely in any automobiles.

Camber inclination must be adjusted in accordance with the toe-in value at the same time, because frontal handling mechanical construction includes another elements, caster trail, steering axis inclination and scrub position. They have intimate relations intertwined each other, so if the camber value were adjusted into adequate inclination, another values were affected into different values, yes, interacting each other. This is the reason why the adjustments on frontal wheel alignments are so difficult as to easily prone the errors in actual scenery.
The mechanical engineer is obliged to adjust camber and to-in at the same time at the moment,being required very special recipies?
