I'm having a problem getting a proper alignment on my 85 Westie. The casters can't be adjusted because of spread in the tie rods apparently. The camber can't be adjusted either and I don't want to damage my new yokohama 370s. The guy where I usually have work done told me that super beetles have a similar problem but that he had never heard of it in a vanagon. Apparently the strut towers get bent and need to be brought back into specification. The guy at the alignment place said there might be a kit of some kind for bringing it back where its supposed to be. Also, my front end seems to be higher than in should be, I've been looking at other Westies and they don't seem to have the pronounced back end sag that my bus has. Are these related problems? Thanks in advance for any advice, Rick
