With our control arms you could shim them forward or backwards a touch where they mount to the chassis and have some adjustment.... Not sure how much.
But... again... The main purpose of our control arms is being able to have camber adjustment.
So are you looking for more caster or just trying to even it side to side?

Since reliable adjustment is probably not possible with our front suspension without some gnarly stuff, I just want to be able to even it up. My Z (and I think most folks) has more caster on the drivers side than the left, and sometimes it does some strange things under heavy braking/steering input. It's got about half a degree more.

Wouldn't be nearly as big of an issue on AST/Motons with race springs since the amount of suspension travel is so reduced as compared to my setup, so I could see how you wouldn't really care, but it would be nice.

Thanks for the work you're putting in to development here.. any official pricing yet?

Thanks again!
