Body shift was created by jackonlyjack
After recent suspension lift 2.5"
body shell as shifted to the right
could this be because i have 3" castor correction arms x4 so slightly over castored :unsure:
also can anyone tell me or take a picture of their pitman arm with wheels straight
so i can see what angle it's supposed to be at
thanks

Jack

Do you have adjustable panhard rods to recenter the body?

Yes but the issue i have
is that the body should move to the left (i've been told) after a lift
so the adjustable panhards will only push it more to the right

Silly question.

Are you looking from the front or back?

Panhard rods control left/right positioning. It won't be the castor arms. Sounds like your adjustable panhard rods are too long!

body moved over to our off side/driver side Wokka
Busta that's what i was thinking.....could be a problem as standard ones went for scrap :pinch:

only need 4mm travel to get them central
so grinder out to remove a bit of length me thinks ;)

steering wheels out too but i need to sort body position out before tracking
or steering my have moved when i did body lift and removed the shaft :unsure:
thats why i asked about pitman arm angle
