First, I'm nominating myself. Members will know what that means.:looser:
If you follow this thread: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=970148&highlight=caster you can see that I'm trying to fix my caster to gain stability on the highway. I've got rustys fixed lowers and uppers. The uppers have two sets of holes, just like you see here:
The holes are about an inch on centers. Since I can't seem to find anywhere that sells the lower control arm shims that push the lower end out, I figured I could pull the upper end of axle in by using the closer hole. I've gotten the arms seperated from the axle but I don't really know how to "roll" the axle backward to get the holes to line up. I already have the front drive shaft disco'd for another reason, but the lowers are hooked up as well as the trackbar. I don't own a come-along but I figured it might be the most helpful. I also down have the body on jackstands since I don't own a pair.
Is it best to put in on stands and disconnect the whole front end?
