Hello John and all,
Looking forward to meeting and seeing all you great folks in a couple of weeks.

Well, here is the final chaper it the caster story...........

After pulling both front a-arms I realized they were on the wrong sides, left to right, no wonder caster was unachievable!
Swapped sides, huge difference, even the symmetry of the ball joint-to upright looks much better.
Anyway it's probably just an isolated mistake at the HST factory, but I'm a little dissapointed my dealer didn't question a -0.3 caster since the alignment charge was $450. At 140mph + this thing was a handfull, hopefully this will help.
