Alignment is done with the suspension loaded ALWAYS on EVERY vehicle. You took the car to someone who has no clue.
Not always true. Strut cars with camber only are done on the tables, cars with caster and camber are done off the tables.

It really depends on the type of alignment machne being used and the mechanic doing the adjustments. The one I use has a setting that compensates for the front end being raised. I can also look at the camber when it's sitting on rack and say I want to raise camber X amount. then raise the front, adjust, then lower and check. Toe must always be done on the rack unless I'm setting up a drag car And I want all the angles set with the front end rasied 1 inch to simulate the car under power at the big end.
I don't suppose you could bring the car to Ohio could ya.
