    What extreme negative caster? If the upper & lower A-arms were installed per spec you had one degree of positive caster, but your measurements told you that the lower A-arm was 1/2" too far forward, and the upper was 1/4" too far back. You then cut the lower, and shifted the upper as noted, which tilted the ball joint line forward creating negative caster.

    Dave, it's obvious that you've convinced yourself that you're right, so continuing to point out the problems here is fruitless. I think you're headed for a train wreck, but for me I'll not bother you further about anything you're doing here. I wish you best of luck in the rest of your build.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
