I have had my neon about 2 weeks. i took it to the shop to get an alignment and they told me that the caster was out. They said there is no caster/camber adjustments on the neon and i would have to get the frame pulled to get it back in specs.
I have a mustang and I know that they make a kit for it that makes caster/camber adjustable. Is there such a kit for the Neon?
If not I will probably get the alignment since caster has no effect on tire wear and see how bad it pulls. I only gave $1500 for the car and if I spend $500 pulling the frame you might as well say the car is totalled!!
Any help would be appreciated!

 

the stock struts do not have a camber adjustment.....however if you had a set of koni struts on there then you could.....but the struts will cost you more then the frame pull.....

 

how far is it off from spec? one or two degrees i would just ignore it
was it caster or camber? i would assume they meant camber,... - caster is a whole other story on its own

 

You can get crash bolts to help adjust camber if thats what is off.

 

They told me it was caster. I'll have to look at the printout they gave me but it is in the car an hour away right now. I do know that it was 2 degrees out. I think I'm gonna get the alignment and see what she does before I pull the frame. Thanks for the advice!

 

They mentioned that at the shop. I think I'll go that route first! Thanks!

 

Got the Alignment! Car drives PERFECT!! Thanks a lot guys!

 

What did they do about the caster????

 

Nothing. Its 2 degrees out. Is this going to cause me problems later?

 

naw you should be alright..
