Is there anyway to adjust spindal angle on the M series

I just bought a 09 M8 and it looks like the spindals are tilted in on the top. It looks like the sled has about a 500lb weight on the front bumper and the skis are leaning in. This is my first cat on my poo's there is a heim joint on the top of the spindal you can adjust your camber angle of the spindal.
 
This is a very good question. I have the same question. Is there any way to adjust the spindle? Mine look like the knees on a 300 lb chick. Maybe this is part of the reason it is so hard to steer...

Quit making fun of my girl friends knees! Don't worry about how it looks, as long as it performs well.
 
That's funny! This is my first Cat too.

I asked the same thing last night when the dealer delivered my new 09 M8 to my shop.

Why in the world do they tip in like that?

I was told that's just the way they are.

I wonder if the Z Bros A arms would straighten them out?
 
Nope on the Zbros

I have the Zbros kit on my M1000 and M8 (just installed) and it does not correct the tip in on the skis from side to side. I think the theory is like alignments on a car you tilt the skis in a bit to get better cornerning? I know I know Acrctic Cats suck on the trail steering wise anyway. I am not sure yet but this Zbros kit should help with the pounding you get from the cats on the trail.
 
Adjustable, no. I wish they were, but at least they are strong. You need camber to keep the ski flat as the a-arms cycle. Align the track, align the skis, set the toe and go ride it.
