| allright i ocassionally do alignments at work.From my experience you want less caster for manual steering cars so its easier to turn. zero degreess all the way around never hurt anyone. These cars will go straight , you will probably find that every thing is in specs once you get it on the machine and only toe will be necessary to adjust. if your car is going straight dont adjust the caster just because someone gave you specifications, just wasting time and will cause yourself bigger headaches. left side(drivers) to make caster negative take a shim from the front and put it in the rear. to make positive take a shim from the rear and put it in the front.passenger side to make neg take shim from front and put it in the rear and to make positive take shim from rear and put it in front. this will change caster without compromising your camber.to change camber only add shims evenly. take some beers this will probably take a while.

| Just got back from the alignment shop. The left side (driver) Caster was waaaaaay Negative. After setting the front-end up properly, it goes and goes and goes straight down the road with your hands off the steering wheel. Thanks to all for their input~~~~~~~~~Ron
