By tonight the whole front end on the wagon will have been rebuilt.

I do mean whole as in hard parts (arms,center link, etc) as well as soft (bushings, end links, etc).

I will be getting it aligned and would like to do a more handling alignment then stock.

It is my dialy driver put I do "push" the car abit. :mrgreen:

Would like to go as far as the upper arms will let me. I did do a little chop and weld for a little extra adjustment clearance.

Let me know.
 
assuming the front parts are still stock level (as opposed to something like the AFX spindles) there's not too far you can push it as the geometry still sucks, BUT about -.5*camber, +7-9*caster PS/+5* DS, and toe in to the edge of the "green zone" on the alignment machine. (i'm assuming it's going to a shop with a computerized system--if not i believe it's about 1/16in toe in) this will give you better handling w/out destroying your tires.
