[DML] Alignment results..



My car was just measured for alignment at my local les shwab. The 
results arent too bad but still bother me a little. 

Front (all in degrees):

Left camber: -0.1           Right camber: -0.3
Left caster: 4.3            Right caster: 2.6  
Left toe   : .20            Right toe   : .20

Rear (degrees):

Left Camber: -1.2           Right camber: -1.0 
Left toe   : 0.42           Right toe   : -0.07

So the front Caster is off quite a bit, and the rear Toe. 
I don't trust Les Shwab to adjust toe on the Rear wheels, so I didnt 
have them do it. And the front toe was good so the car did not 
receive an alignment. 

My car has been having some steering troubles recently with wandering 
and a slight pull to the right. I think the caster is causing the 
pull to the right. 

Would any of these alignment numbers cause unstable steering and 
wandering? The tierod ends, ball joints, steering shaft etc are all 
good. I have new tires with less than 10,000 miles on them. I also 
think the shocks are worn out. If its not the alignment I guess I 
will replace the rack.

I just need some opinions!

thanks,
Adam Price
