I'm considering several ways to increase the caster angle. One is slotting out the holes on one of the front suspension brackets and fitting some eccentric washers, much like this: http://www.jegs.com/i/Specialty-Prod...23765/10002/-1

Another idea is shortening the four bushes on the top wishbones by some 2.5 mm (bush tube and crush tube) and packing with washers to increase the caster angle by about 1 degree.
That's what i was thinking of doing some time when i finish my project as it seems every car with Sierra uprights has the same issue.
