So I phoned the guy up to get an explanation, as it was my dad that took it for the allignment. It appears that the paperwork that he gave dad after the allignment was all wrong. It was completed incorrectly. I do have caster, about 3.5.
One thing that he did say was that he couldn't get enough adjustment on one of the rears and that the bracket would need to come off for modification.

I want to sincerely thank everyone for their comments.

Sounds like BS to me. Why would it print out some random numbers?? That would suggest the "before" numbers may be random too. If you want I can check it for you Ty.
