Once upon a time lots of folks thought the jag front suspension was fixed and unadjustable and lots of money was spent on fabricating arms to get the adjustments.
This exercise indicates how adjustable it really is. One has only to become familiar with all the various series.
As mike indicated....swopping series one arms front to back changes the caster. Series 11 are neutral and is between the two extremes of the series one.
When you consider this range of adjustment and then remember the top three ball joint shims can also be moved about, it makes for considerable range of adjustment to the caster.
Camber is just as adjustable with various thickness shims between the top mount and the pivot bar. Maybe one set for the street and another for the track.
It's certainly not perfect...but it isn't the un-adjustable beast many thought.
