Which way to move alignment shims??
well just swapped a manual steering box for a power box and I dont remember which way to add positive caster. I do remember that to change camber you add equal size shims to the front and back bolt but change caster by moving shims from the front bolt to the back bolt or vice versa. I know it wont be perfect but dont have time for an alignment right now.
Thanks Graham

Re: Which way to move alignment shims??
You want to move the top of the steering knuckle towards the back to gain positive caster. Move a shim from the back bolt to the front will give you more caster while minimumly changing camber.
