I assume that it would be +6.0 "degrees of caster" set on the right side.

By adding 0.6 degrees to make such a different to the driving experience just goes to show how important the caster settings can be.

It is a normal alignment practise to have the RH + caster slightly more then the LH + caster to fine tune for the crown of the highway.

For a complete story, it would be interesting to know the before and after alignment settings.
