I haven't looked at a vgon suspension in the book or my own van in a while,
but my guess is something is up with the upper control arms.  Is it possible
to switch them left to right?  If they are offset that would do it.

Subject: Running out of castor adjustment

So I'm at the shop and they can't seem to get my castor set. The nuts are
almost all the way off the radius rods and still it's off by a bit. The
bushings are new, and they're torquing the hell out of the inner nuts to get
it close. Any suggestions?
