the 94 had undetected damage at the time of purchase and i knew the front was loose because the ball joints were extremely worn.after a while i noticed while looking into the engine compartment that the pass side strut is higher than the drivers side and then noticed other damage around that area.the car pulls slightly to the right and the top of the pass. side tire points in(camber or caster)i've already tried to enlarge the holes at the top of the strut housing but there's not much adjustment there.what i want to do is put a spacer in between the top of the strut and the housing where its mounted to bring it to the same height as the other side and see if that helps it roll straight and bring that tire to the same angle as the drivers side.the tires are wearing even and i know the correct solution is a frame shop but i want to see if this helps first.what i had in mind was cutting and stacking thin gauge steel plates but thats a lot of cutting,i'd say i need at least an inch or more.cone bushings,ball joints and struts have been replaced and i dont see any bent suspension components underneath.thanks for any suggestions.dave
