it just means that you cannot adjust the camber. I do not recall what the rear suspension for the 84 is, but my 3rd gen had a nice independent suspension, while my 4th gen has a multi-link rear beam.

If your tires do not wear irregularly, then you'll be fine.

Steve, sorry for the confusion, but mine is a wagon, and were talking about the front end! Earl
