If they're stock length no, if they're adjustable or longer... yes. But I don't know if caster affects toe in toe out... I'd say no but I'm not exactly an expert in suspension geometry

It depends on how different they are in length.

Im gonna call RC when i get out of class to get some fixed ones and i'll compare measurements... At 3 inches it shouldnt be enough to make it that bad... What would it chagne on my alignment o make it bad? The toe is set and you cant adjust caster without shims and i know he didnt do that

Longer or shorter arms will change the castor and it will also change toe if it's toed in or out any. If toe is set to 0 then it won't change any. Toe likely won't change enough to notice but castor will.
