Hey, my car has a caster problem on the right side.This causes ther car to pull right. I don't have any bent broken pieces, and there is no adjustment for caster unless you slot the lower control arm mount or something. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you guys resolve it. I had the guys at the body shop next to my shop measure the frame on the machine and nothing is bent or collapsed. The car has never been crashed either.

If your caster is off and your frame measures correctly, your lower control arm is bent. I had this happen to one of my company cars. It was a 2001 Max. A pot hole was to blame. I think the control arm was about 135 bucks. Installation and an alignment set the car back perfect.
