Title pretty much sums it up. Took my '69 Special in for an alignment, the right wheel had -2.1 degrees of caster and that is the closest he could get. Left wheel had -0.6.
This is a good mechanic that I trust, and have known for years.
He mentioned the possiblility of a bent spindle... is that possible? Seems that might be possible on today's value-engineered cars, but back then the General used some pretty beefy stuff.
If it's worth anything, it used to be a 4-wheen drum car and I converted to front discs with a kit (including spindles) from Stainless Steel Brakes.
Thanks!
