    The one in Compton is one of their distribution centers - like 10 minutes from my place with no traffic! Hopefully I’ll find a place that carries fabbed ones for sua like ruff stuff so I don’t have to mod for sua too much.

    @Tbasch thank you man - I’ll call and see. My axle had factory ones I could cut off and use for basic mock up - I’m just trying to see where it will be in relation to something I’m making.

    with the Heim upper arm. To gain even more caster i would lengthen the forward (front of vehicle) heim which would in theory push the top of the spindle farther back, is that correct?

    I have the taco tabs on the LCA cams at max caster and neutral for camber. Wanting to dick with it some more now and get all the caster i can squeeze out of this kit.

    Sounds accurate - can't remember. It's opposite of the LCA I believe.

    thats what i thought as well to create the \ angle for positive caster. I just have to make sure i dont bring it too far out to mess up the camber.

    My alignment is pretty dialed otherwise. It does have a little wandering moments but nowhere as bad as my BK kit.

    I'd cut some 3/16 or 1/4 plate to make extensions.
