Default Caster, Camber, King pin inclination......

Ever thought your truck tends to veer off to the left or right when trying to drive straight and you feel you need excessive steering input....??

These trucks have no Caster, Camber or King pin inclination that's why...

Camber and King pin inclination is not so easy to achive without manufacturing a new front axle assembly.
But you can get some Caster easily. This will aid in directional stability, camber the wheels into turns and make your steering linkages line up better..

If you caster your front axle run no toe in or very very slight toe out on the wheels by shortening the drag link.
