My passenger tire looks like it is too far forward on my 69. I checked out my rear wheels and they are lined up equally with the wheel well openings according to my tape measure. I then measured both sides from back to front on the same spot of the wheel and the right side has about 1 1/2" more distance in it than the left. The BF Goodrich P215/70R14 tires are new and the outside edge rubs the front opening of the fender when it passes it.
I got underneath the car and couldn't find any damage to the frame or suspension parts so here is my question. Could the caster be off so far that it would push that wheel that much farther forward? It has quite a bit of vibration at about 50 mph. The front tires are new and have been balanced. All of the front suspension parts feel very tight.
I do plan on buying an alignment tool or go to a good alignment shop but I just wanted to get some opinions before I did anything.
