Let’s say you just installed some new suspension parts to improve your car’s handling. Or, maybe you want to dial in more negative camber for a trackday or replace worn-out struts or bushes on your daily driver. Any time suspension work is performed, your car will need the wheels realigned.

That used to mean scheduling a date with the alignment machine and not all tyre outlets have one of them. However, an SPC Performance FasTrax Camber Caster Gauge from Summit Racing, lets you perform wheel alignments at home or at the track. The portable, hands-free design allows you to fine-tune alignment settings for optimal tracking and handling while minimising alignment headaches.

The FasTrax uses a bubble level gauge that reads camber from +/- 4 degrees and caster from -4 degrees to +12 degrees. Models are available to fit cars with 13in-22in wheels, off-road vehicles with 13in-17in wheels and tyres up to 44in, and a heavy-duty version for commercial and fleet vehicles with 21in-26in wheels.

This SPC Performance instructional video walks you through procedures of setting caster, camber, and toe using the gauge for street vehicles with 13in-17in wheels.
