I posted a similar thread recently and somebody (I don't remember who??) said that even shortening their adjustable uppers all the way, they still couldn't get the appropriate caster. Only after adding adjustable lowers were they able to get it dailed in perfectly.

The angle of the rear driveshaft is called the _____________? And it affects _____?

So if a person were to go and buy adjustable uppers and lowers, is it possible to dial these in for the correct caster or are you pretty much stuck taking it to an alignment shop? Just curious if there is a method or place to measure from to get the 7,8, or 9 degrees your're looking for.

Yes, in fact, it's the only way to dial it in correctly. As for where and how you should check your caster angle goes, click on the link below and see step #90 on down

That URL did not work. I added a "www." to it and Presto... it worked.
