    Thanks
    That is what is "visually" looks like, but how can that happen?
    There is no adjustment in the top ball joint position.
    If I had to lengthen the trailing arm to increase caster, should the machine be recording it a Negative caster?

    PS when do you want me to drive down

    I have just gone and wound the trailing arms in so the bottom wishbone arms are now towards the front of the tunnel.
    Looking down on the top ball joint the bottom joint is now in front - positive caster.
    Amazing how only a couple of inches of adjustment makes such a difference.
    More annoyed the machine did not pick up Negative!

    Well that all worked out well.
    Just been up and down the dual carriageway at 90kph (I think my gauges are KPH ahem!)
    All feels good.
    I must have been on negative camber. I will have a word with the man on the fancy machine tomorrow
