Greetings fellas. I need some help. For some background, the car has a Hotchkis TVS suspension setup, s10 blazer spindles and C4 Baer brakes. The car also has HRE wheels 18x9 front and 18x10 rears. I have an issue with the drivers side. The inner wheels is digging into the upper a arm at full turn (right), but magnified much worse in reverse and turning. I recently had both upper and lower ball joints replaced in hopes of fixing the issue, but it did not. Tie rod ends were damn near even from side to side as well.
My concern is that there is 11-12 degrees of caster with this setup. The folks at Hotchkis are telling me, that this is within their spec, but I have never seen that much. Vehicle has been properly aligned. Drivers side didn’t require any shims, passenger side did. I have no problems with the passenger side. I have attached some pictures. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
