Thanks very much for the help people.


The explanations were really helpful. I now, at least, understand toe
in much better. And I'm better armed to ask the right questions.


FWIW, adjusting caster on passenger side, pulling rod toward front (2
turns,  +/- 1/2 turn or nut to "original" position) made no
difference.


Hopefully a "Vanagon" shop close by, is open tomorrow.


I'm sure I could learn to make these adjustments "shade tree" correct,
but right now, I just want it done. Right. (especially considering
repair to radius arm hole) Besides, to get my Westy on level surface
in my carport really limits the work space. Not my cup-o-tea!


Neil.
