Rear Wheel Caster

[Sarge29]

When I got the 998 the right rear geared hub was not on it. The top control arm was missing also. I bought a top control arm and installed everything. Now after the test drive I have noticed that the right rear wheel is out too far at the top. Did I get the wrong top control arm? I did check the frame and everything is good there, also the lower control arm is good. The other problem is that the left side is about 1 1/2 inches higher than the right. What would cause that other than a weak spring. Again, the frame checks out good.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Sarge what youre referring to is camber.I'm a suspension specialist of 27 years and think unless you have a frame machine or are very experienced in such things it may be worth a trip to a good body shop that has a frame machine and someone who knows how to use it. From what you describe my first guess would be a slight twist in the frame somewhere. Did you measure the control arm you installed verses the oppisite side.

No, I did not check the control arm against the other side but I will do that tomorrow. Thanks for the tip. I have some frame experience. If the control arm is the same I will go to a frame shop.
