Do all 6g stangs come with the same alignment?

[Turbo Cow]

2021 GT Premium w/ GT PP. Do the GT performance packs have different alignment settings than standard GTs? Mine seems way more twitchy and wants to dart left/right with the slightest movement of the wheel.
What are the alignment specs supposed to be for my car?

I think that's more likely the electric power steering than alignment. Don't quote me but I believe ford messed with the calibration for the electric power steering over the years, normal mode is pretty twitchy on my 2022.

The 2019 service manual calls for -0.72 degrees base, -1.03 perf pack, all +/- 0.75. Toe is 0 +/- 0.2 degrees for all but GT350 and Perf Pack 2.
Specifying camber to two decimal places seems silly, not likely anyone can get it that close and it wouldn't matter anyway.

Twitchy could be from some toe out.

All mustangs come with the standard Ford misalignment settings

Do you know the setting sor front and rear for those different cars?

Except for a very few models, and that doesn’t include gt/pp1, that have camber plates, the camber is fixed and not adjustable without slotting/grinding holes, therefore Ford specs are a bad joke

Ok. And what is your point ?

More like "guidelines"!!!

I think the point is, the OP asked for if all 6G cars have the same alignment settings. Dude just supplied the settings for just about every 6G car.

I would say, asked, and answered.

They all come with whatever they were aligned to while assembled. The can't possibly the same but likely all are within the same spec.

First thing you should do is check where your alignment is because it might be off - don't assume it's what it what assembled with or that during build it was aligned correctly. You probably have some toe out in the front - set it to zero and you'll be fine.

I'm not sure that info can be fully trusted.

My only data point is the 350 and the 350R, but the values shown in that table vary from what is printed in the owners supplement.

If we can trust the table and we eliminate the shelby variants with different hardware, yeah that's one of a few that flips the front / rear camber bias (along with the HP mach).

Its interesting to see that the higher performance NA variants do that, as its what BMR have been recommending for quite a while now :

BMR recommend 0.25 to 0.50 less camber on the rear than the front

i remember reading a thread about how fords steering calibration makes the car tramm a lot and pull on the side of a crowned road and generally be very twitchey. is is a setting you can change i believe with forscan. search for the tramming thread.
