Default Alignment question

Hey guys on my 03 GT I just put new tires on it but found out that my left front tire is sitting at -2.0 negative camber. Would the camber adjustment on top of the strut plate have enough play room to bring it in spec or will I have to oblong one of the strut holes? Thanks! I was going to play with it, but ran out of time so I just adjusted the toe. Still pulls to the right though.

Before wanging out the alignment holes I would purchase some caster/camber adjusters

Steeda 1994-04 Mustang 4-Bolt Caster Camber Plates - Made in the USA 555-8095

Also, just about every mustang that I've put a tape measure on, has the front sub frame all jacked around, so you might want to invest in a set of sub frame connectors before it's too late. Make sure you get some substantial, full length connectors, the shortys just make it worse.

I know it sounds like I'm a walking Steeda commercial but their stuff has always worked well for me

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to save up a little more. I was able to oblong the strut tower today and it gave me a couple more degrees positive camber. So now about -1.7.
