    Hi, I have replaced all the bushings and king pin bearings etc. In order to adjust the maximum caster, I have installed shims on the lower control arm at the rear and the upper one at the front. I thought that this way I would get the right angle at which I could get maximum rotations with the outer pin. While searching for articles on the subject, I found your old post today. You have apparently done the same steps as me.

    How many degrees of caster did you get with your steps?

      I ended up with 1.75 on the passenger side and 1.50 on the drivers side.  The camber was way off on the passenger side and I ended up slotting the top of the frame to get the camber at zero.  The car hadn't been wrecked and I had read that this was a common problem with some Avanti IIs.
