I'm stuck here in Iraq but my sister crashed my car while I was here and I went home on leave and tried to get it fixed. Anyway I took it to an alignment shop and the caster is off by two of whatever measurement it is. Its making the car pull to the left. Basically the front drivers side wheel is pushed back now. They said I need to take it to a frame alignment shop.
I'm wondering if there is something I can replace that'll fix the caster, like a crossmember or something.
Also I called a frame alignment shop and they said they could fix it, they'd have to put it on a laser rack or something that'll measure it and then they'll put it on a pulling machine that'll pull the frame back into the correct shape. sounds really expensive. I think he said the shock tower was pushed back or something.
anyway is getting the frame aligned a good deal or is there something I can replace that'll get it closer to spec.

That is going to have to go to a frame shop. The Caster AND Camber are factory set and therefore have no adjustment. If you have a camber kit then you can adjust that. Caster, though, is a rigid setting. The only way to fix it on these cars is to have the car straightened out. And yes it could be expensive. Sorry to hear about the accident, hope that your sister is doing ok, Thanks for serving and keep your head down and come home in one piece!
