Any way to adjust caster?
My dads 98 Honda Civic DX has some caster issues. He needed inner and outer tie rods before I could align it, then we noticed it needed a camber kit, so I installed the Skunk2 adjustable control arms. Now toe and camber are adjusted fine so he wont get any tire wear, but in the front he has about a .8 degree caster split which is making it pull. As far as I know there is no kit. He should get struts soon because he has never had them replaced and it has a lot of miles on it, but im not sure if it will correct the problem. I was thinking of just drilling the holes out where the strut mount sits and put washers inbetween the bolts. Has anyone done this? I dont really want him to have to spend much more money, but at the same time I want his car to finally be aligned correctly, thanks.
