recently did my alignment on my s14, i have megan coils and im slammed, i thought my camber on my pass. side wheel was off because of bad tire wear and the wheel was more sunked in then my driver side.

turned out that the camber was good but the caster on my passenger side is off my 2degrees.

driver side 7deg caster pass side 5deg caster

i believe 7degres is about right for our car b/c on the hunter rack it was in the green.

how do i adjust for caster? what do i need to do to correct this?

you should want about 6.5 degrees on the driver side and about 7 degrees on the passenger side
