As I always say, the rear geo is on the p*** straight out of the factory, yours seemingly was no different.

Feel nicer now?

I still need to get mine done after having the walk kit fitted...  :indifferent:

Usually makes a noticeable amount of difference when ive had it done in the past tho.

Do you know if they used the new or old settings? (i believe the old settings are the best for the rear of the car?)
