The Sierra column comes in two flavours, fixed and adjustable, both fit the same way and you need to extend the column link, so mixing the two models
shouldn't be a problem

I think you need to provide a lot more information about what you are doing before anybody is going to be able to help very much, and why are you only
asking about caster, are you confident about the camber?

Hi there not confident about camber eighter
bought the chassis based on a locost without the brackets so when i got to weld them i thought about the caster and camber dont know what degree the
wishbones should be set at & no info in the haynes roadster book about cater.
ps- only using independent at the front gone for live axle at the back.
hope that helps thanks Alex

Sounds like you need to get hold of a second hand copy of the original "build your own sportscar for £250" book, then which will give you
the bracket positions. Youw ill probably need about 5 deg of caster to have enough self centring to satisfy the iVA examiner. 1 degree negative camber
should suit.
But what you really need to do is to post a question in the correct part of the forum, which is the Running Gear section. Give plenty of
infomation and you should get some useful answers.
