Hi,
Yesturday I finish to replace the last component that my car need in the front suspension (rebuild), and Today I went to service shop, and they make the alignment, but I have a question about the Caster degree, the final report are:


LEFT
CAMBER : .50 deg.
CASTER: 1.39 deg.
Toe: 0.10"

RIGHT
CAMBER : 0.57 deg.
CASTER: 2.49 deg
Toe: 0.11"

But the mechanic said to get the correct caster, I must go to the Car Body repair shop, to get the right degree (2.00 - 3.00 deg.), Is this true, or what I can do to get the correct caster.


NOTE: Now my car pulls to the right side.

Does sombody have an idea to get this problem fixed?


Thanks,


Edwin
