Hi Rob,
the LHS will be marginal 3mm negative with no shims at all. Of course I will have to allow some shimming for caster though which may pull it back less than 3 mm. Time will tell on that one.
If I had bulk negative it would not really be an issue (apart from centreline geometry) as it could easily be shimmed toward positive bias.

I ended up with the Evans kit after he split from Paul at W & E. Obviously this guy was pumping a few out and didn't have the same respect for quality build as Paul did/ does. I have spoke with Paul a few times but since my kit was after the split I am the owner of a bast*rd child. Nothing that cant be fixed, just sloppy at the factory or backyard colourbond shed or wherever he built them.
Appreciate your thought time though.
Cheers
Gary
