Can you  adjust castor on a Spitfire? and if so how?

Part of the bill from when  I got my suspension set up says they adjusted 
the front castor (as well as  camber and toe)... but I don't see how...?

I could be wrong, but I seem to recall reading somewhere that some caster  
adjustment is available via shims under the bolt through the turret to the TOP  
of the chassis main rail.
