Davidl, are you sure? I have since called assoc. and I spoke to someone named Bob and he said that there isn't any camber or castor built in, and that the arms are to point backward not forward when mounted on the chassis.

But, I agree with you, it does seem like the arms are made with some camber and castor when checked with calipers they don't measure the same at the front and back of the mounts, about 1/2mm difference.
