wheel pushed back closer to fender
My wheel is closer to the fender on my 94 civic, the reason it is like that the last owner hit a curve and I wanted to know what can it be? I already change lower arms.

Just bring it into the shop and let them have a look. Chances are Murphy's Law will kick in and it'll be the last thing that you replace. As for Caster, you can't really adjust it on older Honda's unless you modify it. A good body tech won't need the alignment rack to find your problem. Me, I'd need an alignment rack most of the time.
