Default Moving the front subframe.

I'm pretty sure I've narrowed my caster problems down to my subframe. Pretty sure that's what's causing all this. But anywho, how would I go about moving it forward and how much does it actually move? Pictures are always great. Thanks guys!

Stock crossmember?
I would upgrade to a traction bar where you can adjust your caster with the radius rods.

But as for the Stocker, I would replace bushings for the front suspension components.
That's usually the best bet since we do drive 20 year old cars. Good luck !

Think about the traction bar too.

It's not the crossmember. It's the subframe. You know, the big piece that holds on the tie rods and ****. Lol.

Well I wanna do it right. How do you move the subframe? And how do I check if it has moved?
