    Alignment Complete?

    I had my Marauder aligned not long ago. The guy said the right front caster wouldn't go any farther than 2.2 degrees. He suggested the subframe may be bent. How likely is that and what other suggestions that would cause the caster to not properly align? The car has 273,386 miles. Thanks for any info.

    Has the car ever been in an accident? Is the suspension original?

    No accidents, I've replaced upper and lower ball joints.

    At 273k and 20 years old, i'm sure the bushings are shot, its best to replaced the front suspension control arms to do it all at once.... and don't over look the rear suspension control arm bushings, every marauder I work with OEM suspension on they are garbage, especially the upper passenger side.

    I've replaced the upper control arm on both sides. They came with the ball joints made into the arm.
