Move upper arm mount rearward to allow caster adjustment

you said "I would relocate the front A arm brackets on each side out a little and the rear brackets on each side in a little" you would be better just to move them both rearwards on the chassis.

get two pencils and align them end to end, then roll one forward or rearward slightly, that's what the adjusters do to the bolts in the chassis. the offset bushes were just meant to alter camber and not to be misaligned to gain caster, but that is what they get used for. (i know you know this)

so with anything other than the bolts (pencils) being in alignment the rubber bushes will have to have an angle in them for the arm to move the ball joint more rearward. Fine if they are soft rubber but not so fine with a harder material.

and i actually beg to differ that it'll be easy just to move the position of the top arm mounts.

I know what I said. If you cannot understand I cannot help you. What I am talking about will result in zero binding, but give the same exact result as the offset bushings. You can beg to differ all you want. You're wrong. Keeping both bushing centers on the same plane and relocating the brackets would be a simple job. No binding, but just more caster. All that said, that's not how I would go about it anyway. I'd just get aftermarket control arms. Trust me. I understand the geometry. I did my first alignment in either late 1974 or early 1975.
