Just replaced upper/lower ball joints and tie rods, hoping to get a better ride. Carefully replaced parts to the same dimensions as the ones I removed. Also installed cam kit so it could be aligned, then went to the dealership for an alignment. No improvement in ride quality. Just recently noticed that the left front wheel is positioned significantly further back towards rear of vehicle than the right one. The right is centered in relation to the wheel well fender. Left is approx 1 1/2 inches aft of center. I understand this to be "caster," but are the wheels supposed to be equal in caster position to each other? Can this disparity be causing me to lose dental fillings when hitting a pot hole? I can do most repairs, but am an idiot when it comes to alignment issues.
