    caster mod in a CPP lower control arm

    Not much of a journalist, so it might be brutal to write an instructional article? Short version......Square body 2 wheel drives are really fairly simple. More shims, more camber, More shims on the front attaching bolt is more caster, more on the rear attaching bolt is less caster. Usually you...

    caster mod in a CPP lower control arm

    Ya gotta move the lower arms forward to get more positive Caster. All of the adjustment on the original C 10s, C20s, and C30s was shims on the upper control arms.....more shims on the front equals more Camber, more Caster, more on the rear equals less Caster, more camber and so on. After you...

    caster mod in a CPP lower control arm

    Never in my years of Alignment did I have a problem with shims "popping" out. Of course I tightened the sh!t out of the upper control arm attaching nuts. I had a special 3/14 box end(1/2 ton) and a 7/8 box end(3/4 ton), both bent in a couple of places to facilitate the job? I used to be...

    Scottsdale Spear Molding

    I'm talking about end caps NOT molding. The spear end on the front fender and the square end cap at the rear of the molding on the bed, NOT the complete molding. Have seen some kits for the molding that are very close and sold by the foot?
