Thanks nicklouse. Not a quick process but I can see how it would work. I haven't even measured it yet as I've just dropped back on to its wheels and the cones are new. The subframe is a "pattern" so I wouldn't be surprised if the wheel alignment is a bit vague.

They are not adjustable from the factory, however, as Nick has mentioned, you can shim the brackets and that will adjust the Toe Angle. To adjust the Camber, you either need to fit adjustable brackets or file the hole and weld a washer (which is actually the better option).

 

Some factory info on shimming for Toe Adjustment

I'll take the imperial to metric equivalents for the shim thickness with a pinch of salt :shy: but thanks for the drawing and the data.
