Has anybody actually had the caster and camber adjusted on the UFO gas pusher chassis ? I have a Itasca Latitude 39W, and looking at the huge I-beam axle, unless the kingpin is shimmed, I find it hard to believe they can do much about caster / camber without heating up the axle.

Camber is not adjustable. Toe is of course adjustable at the tie rods. Caster is adjustable using shims. See http://www.hendrickson-intl.com/pdfs...appendix_b.pdf page A-72
