Re: Front End Alignment
Read your post wrong, If you want + caster the upper ball joint has to be moved back. Bottom ball joint is stationary. By adding a shim in the front (toward bumper) or removing to the rear (towards cab) your pushing the upper ball joint backwards, or in a way, "moving the bottom ball joint forward."
Caster is a bit of a pain in the arse because it will mess up your camber, so you have to play a game of compromise.
I did a home alignment on my 65 mustang. A shop that charged me $80 to align it (was even recommended by a friend) destroyed a $300 Set of front tires in less than 3,000 miles. I aligned it myself and put over 5,000 miles on my current tires with no noticeable wear. I plan on aligning my C10 in the next week or two after I finish the drop.
