Re: My caster mod (with pictures)

Well I took a whack at this mod this past weekend and it didn't work out so well for me. We drilled the new locating holes and I grinded the lip of the cross member to clear, but my problem was that the control arm bushing sleeve hit the locating rod saddle. We are going to try again in the future when I replace my front springs and instead of 3/4" we will either try 9/16" or 5/8". I think the problem is that the outer bushing sleeve on the energy suspension poly bushings are slightly longer than what was on it previously.
