Might be worth getting the adjustable tie rods while you're at it, in light of Sitnlo's advice, with which I fully agree.
A camber gauge is easily made using a digital level (e.g. Stanley Fat Max) and a Y-shaped frame with protruding prongs of equal length that then fit at 3 points inside the rim. Swivel plates can be had by using lino tiles (Bunnings), shiny faces together, with grease coating in-between as a lubricant. Fixing two straight bars on front & rear bumpers extending laterally several inches each side will give fixing points for string (I used fluorescent nylon string line) to do a toe-in/out check. This will show you if the rear wheels are correct as well (many a bent rear trailing arm out there!).
With patience, it is surprising how accurate you can do you own alignment, saving dollars & knowing the job has been done right.
