   What is it like compared to the otherside? The wishbone may be bent slightly, maybe the previous owner hit it?

   the otherside is much the same only slightly more towards the bumper tho, is there any way these can be moved forwards, ie using alignment kits of some sort.

   Best to get your wheel alignment/tracking checked mate, your caster angle may be out (this can be adjusted a bit on the top mount nuts)
