is the axl centered? is there play in bushings? spring looks very curved when it should be straight

the springs should not bow like that after caster correction. mine are straight. it looks very very bad. should be straight

have you extended the panard rod to re-centre the axle under the car because i have and mine doesnt touch at all

I'm not sure it's possible to put the rear arms on the front but are you sure you have front arms on the front?

Castor correction arms are meant to eliminate that bowing. Even before I had my castor correction arms with 3" spring mine never bowed like that.
