my 98 teg i took it to get a camber kit and stuff on b/c my wheels were rubbing really bad.
the people at this shop said that they couldnt fix the caster but they could fix the rest so i asked them what i could do 2 fix it and they said that i would have to take it to a frame shop .
anybody have any idea's?
lemme know thanx

Knowing the basics



Caster:
To determine caster, first draw an imaginary line through the upper and lower ball joints. The angle made by this line (the steering axis) with another imaginary line drawn perpendicular to the ground (the centerline) is the caster. If the angle between the steering axis and centerline is toward the front of the car, caster is negative. If toward the rear of the car, caster is positive. Measured in degrees, caster plays a large role in determining both steering feel and high-speed stability. The goal of proper caster alignment is to achieve optimal balance between low-speed steering effort and high-speed stability. An increasingly positive caster enhances high-speed stability, but increases low-speed steering effort. An increasingly negative aster decreases low-speed steering effort and high-speed stability. For cars with power steering, an increase in low-speed steering effort increases the rate of wear in the power steering system. With most suspension designs, there is a trade-off between caster and camber angles at the extreme limits.

 

thanx man

 

Has your car been in a wreck? If you bought it used and and havent wrecked it since then you could see some cash from the dealership\bodyshop\seller.

 

yea i hit a curb after i first got it
then i dont know if it has b4 or not
but the shop said that somebody put a new fender on it

Whatever you do, don't sew them, leave that to doctors. The last time I tried to sew someone they sued me.
