    Incorrect. When Paden revalved he added a little preload to his coils. In return raising up the front of his truck.

    Double sheared Bolt that passes through the Uniball. Also the travel/angle of the arm is not limited to/by the Uniball.

    There's a few others but those are the main :cool:

    Anti dive is the way are upper arms are set at an angle. So when you slam on the brakes its doesn't nose dive a shit ton.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Personally I like some negative camber. Helps with tire wear on paved surfaces. At 0 I wear out the outsides of the tires fast.
    I always max out my caster (I'm lucky to hit 2.5*) and my camber ends up around 1.5-2*

    Anyone here adjust caster in their driveway/garage?

    I've done toe a few times and felt I got better results than the shop, because I'd adjust, test drive, adjust, test drive, etc.

    Camber and caster I understand, but I'm not sure how I can adjust one without adjusting the other.

    I do it in my driveway. Takes less time and comes out better than when a shop does it.
    You really can't adjust one without changing the other. Well you might be able to with heim uppers but it would still be hard to adjust one and not affect the other.
