Title: Front End Alignment Caster Adjustment
Post by: brianz on April 13, 2010, 10:17:44 PM
After replacing upper and lower control arm parts, I am having trouble adjusting the caster. I have turned the lower adjuster however it doesn't seem to make any difference it the setting. What is the proper method for making the Caster adjustment? Which way is Positive, and which is Negative?

You need a Service Manual. p.11 shows shows camber, caster, toe-in adjusting procedures. If You need, I can mail You the page. A complete page ,however, is a lage file. If better, I can send You a fax or - if not clearly enough - I can send You copies (18 pages), which show details better than a fax.
Greetings! Go
