    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....
