a traction bar will make it so you can adjust caster, that would be a good bet.

First things first, replace the radius rod bushings with some new ones from ES. It could just be a dead bushing.

From there, you can get another alignment reading done, but bring some washers that will fit over the radius rod. You can put them on the inner side of where the radius rod connects to the front crossmember...as long as you can find a shop that is friendly enough to let you do that kind of thing.

pretty tired of stock crossmember (that thing hugh) so i dont think im gonna fix that, more likely im getting traction bar replace the whole thing (one stone hit three birds, ya know) to fix the caster plus getting some traction and clear alot of space.
I like how fullrace traction bar is but it required to use its radiator which i dont want to. and Jimfab is out of bussiness(look like it)
looking for a traction bar with two requirements
1. like fullrace
2. use stock or haft size civic rad.
any1 know where can i get traction bar like Jimfab? u know, big bang for buck.

I got the JKmotorsports traction bar from LSDmotorsports. It has mounts for the new half size radiators. The mounts make your set-up just like stock. Also, it has the double ended hind joints just like full-race, etc.
