Right hand Caster out of alignment

kenchan · 08-11-2014, 02:54 PM

yah, i think the pull was from the initial alignment toe angles. i was about to post up something mean, but decided not to.

Why didnt you have them adjust the caster on the l/f to match its too low anyway. You said you have spl upper arms correct?

they did the best they can, if they adjust the caster any further, the camber goes out of spec

You have any pictures of the upper arms? Need to see the adjusters on both sides as it sets now. I what to see how much adjustment is left on the arms.

Sorry buddy, I got really busy with my supercharger last two weeks. I took the car to a third shop and they told me it was little difficult to adjust the caster without getting the camber and toe out of spec but they got it and the steering is alot better now. The pull is completely gone now.

I would stick with that shop for alignments. They obviously have a better alignment tech there who has his crap together.

Absolutely, the issue finding a good local performance shop. There is alot of good shops but as soon as you start getting into performance (especially for a car like the 370z) they start scratching their heads
