Default Megan Upper Control Arms and Caster

I just got my car back yesterday from a shop who install these control arms. However, I was only able to get a max caster of 3.5. Has anyone experienced this issue with these control arms?

Before this, on stock arms I was able to get 6-7 caster.

Have no experience off aftermarket control arms.... but just a thought, they have been installed on wrong side? Oem arms are sided, which I would assume these are aswell.

Why are you using camber arms?

How did the shop set them?

If they used the arms to move camber positive, then the issue you're having makes sense. They went too far positive on the arms. They had to compensate by going negative on the stock adjuster. Thus reducing and limiting your caster.
