RE: GTV-6 alignment

["Jeff Greenfield" <alfaguy@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The reason for running different caster from one side to the other,
according to my alignment guy, is to compensate for the crown in the road.

Yes, it is a compromise. If the road were truly flat, the car may pull a
little, but most roads are not flat and have a crown, so for the most part
this will make the car track straight.

Or, I could be completely wrong about this ...

HTH,

Jeff

Why the different caster side-to-side?
