The caster can be moved forward some with a caster bushing (hole for bar is shifted forward in the bushing) on the TopLine bar. I don't know about the CB bar. The camber+ setup from TopLine gives you much more adjustability than the standard camber adjuster. Yetibone made his front swaybar setup and had some more adjustability. You might be able to find some pix of it if you do a search of his posts.

I guess I'll get the topline bar, and later get the camber+ adjusters and castor fix bushings...

If you ask when you order, the caster fix bushing will come with the sway bar instead of the standard bushings.

That makes the caster adjustable? or fixes it with more Castor than stock?

No, it moves the sway bar forward giving you a bit more caster. You will need that if you lower the front. It is not adjustable.
