Front end caster FYI
My 32 chevy which I've had for 30 years (see member gallerys) had only about one degree of caster in the front end. The steering became way to quick at my age as the car wanted to dart left or right. I put another set of wishbones on the I-beam to bring the caster to about six degrees and what a difference. It tracks like its on rails at freeway speeds. No more white knuckle rides. Just wanted to let you know.
Thanks,
Milner

Good to hear it worked out! Nothing like a bit of caster to make the drive more enjoyable....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
