Factory specs.....castor 3 degrees 50 min...ie almost 4 positive....camber  
30 to 15 min....ie positive one half to one quarter. toe plus 1/8.   In  other 
words Castor about  plus 4  camber plus 1/2 to 1/4  toe  positive 1/8.  in 
mine I had them set it to almost no toe, a half degree of  negative camber and 
they did the best with the caster they could. Only got a  couple of degrees of 
positive camber, with out shimming the crossmember at the  back. They did not 
want to do this so we tried it as it was. of the three caster  can often be off 
a fair bit and on the road you don't notice it as much, esp on  a power 
steering car. Think of caster as the front forks of a bike, the more  they are 
kicked out the more stable in a straight line, the more they are closer  to 
upright the quicker they turn. Look at road bikes and dirt bikes. Anyway mine  
steers very nicely on the highway and in tight stuff now takes a much better  bite, 
thats the negative camber working. I'm happy with it now and am leaving it  
the way it is.
