Re: My caster mod (with pictures)

I have become quite fond of this thread as of late, probably because I am at this point in my build and I wanted to say thank you all for being a part of this growth and development to improve our vehicles.

I know there is some discrepancy in the OE and aftermarket lower shaft index holes and I Just wanted to share what I removed from my truck last night. As far as I can tell from the amount of play on the ball joints and the shaft bearings coupled with speaking to the brother and mechanic of the long term owner of the truck my lower shafts on my 72 are original. The hole is indexed 1 1/2" back from where the shaft decreases in diameter to accept the arm (photo may be deceiving). I will post numbers on what my moog replacement shafts come indexed to and then have them re-indexed with 2 or 3 longer indexed hole locations for adjustment at a machine shop.
