Thanks for the replies but the caster pills on my chassis do not have pre defined positions in that you can turn them to any angle and nip up the kingpin so how other than setting them at either N, E, S, W can i get adjustment in between as even the difference between say N and E setting seems to move the camber / caster a lot?

What I am trying to ensure is that it is the same each side (making an assumption that the chassis is near enough straight!)

and ideally looking to add more caster to dial out the hopping from the front I am getting - in know there are several ways to acheive this but I had a thread on this a while ago and the consensus was to try to add more caster.

Thanks
