Still no self centering..


Well driving the car home from the garage with them setting up the alignment up at 1 degree toe in the car is still not self centering.  Gave the car a good push around the garage but its not making any attempt at self centering at all. The IVA says it should show an effort of going back to center.

A post on the owners club suggested I might have the lower wish bones on the wrong side. They are offset to bring the lower side of the uprights forward to give positive caster. Positive caster helps with self centering.














I ended up measuring the arms on the wishbones and mine were the correct way round. 

The below book had some helpful info.. 


Here you can see the positive caster, the lower wishbone is infront of the top wishbone. Not masses but its still positive..
