Default ROW 030 alignment specs

Installing a ROW 030 suspension on my 2001 Boxster S. Does anyone have alignment recommendations for mostly street but some track use (if I can get away from the office). Thanks for the help.

Default Litronics keep coming loose

Upgraded to Lits a long time ago, about every 6 months they will stop working one at a time.

If you push on them they turn back on. It seems the clamping devices are working loose.
Anyone have any idea how to correct this??? Possibly a landing tray alignment issue?

When I push them back in and rotate the locking arm, I hear the pop and they seem very tight at that moment??

The factory alignment specs are so wide as to be useless. Pretty much set the fronts to max neg camber, same each side. Then do the rear the same measurement plus another 0.5 to 1 degree depending on how aggressive you want to go and how fast you wear out your tires. Front toe depends on how much turn in "help" you want versus a little straight-line wandering. I would recommend 1/32" total in unless you AX, then you could go a little toe out. For the rear, it depends directly on how much you want to hang the rear out. I would recommend 1/32" per side minimum up to about 3/32". I don't think most people "in the know" like or use the factory specs. My 2 cents, YMMV, etc...
