Has the Lower Control arm bushing stud to K-member hole been repaired? Any cracking that could cause flexing?

Any drivers side collisions? Are there factory spot welds on the inner fender? At joint to the radiator support? scope scope scope scope



You could try running an adjustable strut rod on the left side and slightly pull the LCA forward.

-You have to disconnect the lower ball joint, back off the T-bar all the way, and adjust the strut rod too short.

-Then feel the natural up and down movement of the LCA and ride height.

-Then push the LCA forward before it feels like it's binding or pinching the LCA rubber bushing. Then adjust the strut rod to that new length so the back strut bushing is against the K-member.

Or measure your old strut rod and make the new one 1/2" shorter. Theatrically that will give you around 3 deg positive caster assuming UBJ to LBJ is roughly 9"


If you could add 3 deg pos caster I think that would net you 2-3 deg caster with 1/4 deg negative camber.

After that you can adjust the right side to match. And you appear to have plenty of adjustment to do that.

That's sort of a band aid until you for sure identify what is going on in the left front. And figure if the issue is stable and not going to worsen. Or if want to attempt to fix it.
