    Guys my alignment guy just called & my cars in on the machine, just installed the Stern uppers but we have no idea what to set the caster at, anyone know???

    These are the spec I have...

    Front Camber -1.2 to 0.04
    Front Toe 0.08 to 0.25
    Front X Camber -0.5 to 0.5
    Front Total Toe 0.17 to .50

    Rear Camber -1.8 to 0.8
    Rear Toe 0.13 to 0.25
    Rear X Camber -0.5 to 0.5
    Rear Total Toe 0.25 to 0.50
    Rear Thrust Angle -0.12 to 0.12

    Caster is not adjustable from factory so there is no spec to go by.


    EDIT: I spoke to someone over at Pure Motorsport & he told me for a daily driver caster should be around 4 to 4.5

    Yeah you dont want anything more than 6* of caster, it will cause the tie rod to hit the inner fender well on full lock of the wheel.

    Although from my opinion, when i had caster set to 10* the car felt unbelievable. just couldnt turn to full lock either way. lol
