OK guys there the specs of my car
'97 Eclipse GST
Megan full coilover kit (adjustable ride height)
18 inch rims not sure of size exactly
225/40/18 Kumho Estas
Got my alignment done set toe on the front and rear and they shimmed the rear control arms to bring in the camber in the rear. The front camber and caster are out on the left side and the camber is out on the right. I looked at the control arms and all that tryin to see if something was bent to throw out the caster but i cant find anything. is there an adjustable balljoint or something that will do camber and caster that you guys know of i have been looking around all i have been able to find is camber kits nothing really that does both. any help would be appreciated.
 
What you are looking for are expensive from what I remember. But if you are having a problem eating through a set of tires or two will pay for the setup. There is a kit that you buy that replaces the whole upper control arm. It is is fully adjustable. Down side is if I remember ~350.00 per side. I will post back if I find them.
 
I was afraid of that. I think i seen some adjustable ball joints that adjusted both camber and caster but I cant find them now. I looked under the car and cant find anything bent. If your at the right front wheel you can fit two fingers behind the wheel but its tight. On the left front you can fit 3 fingers easy. It looks like something is bent but i cant see anything. My first thought was maybe a shifted cradle but i dont know how to tell. I dont think our cars have cradles though so im in the dark. I really need some help here. Could it be bushings out or something.

All of this stuff popped up after i had my coil overs installed at a local shop when i lived in Washington. After i got them installed i had it aligned and the alignment tech told me the caster was out. Maybe the suspension was installed wrong. I dont know im all out of ideas. I really need some help guys thanks.
