Re: changing upper a-arm mount locations. Wanting input please
ok so first off I know I need pictures so they will come soon. I have been reworking my mounts and have them re drilled and dropped 1/2 inch (both pivots) I have a measured antidive of 9.5 degrees. My upper a-arms have additional caster built into them but I noticed I had a few of the spacers on the front mount to get as much caster as I had (around 7 degrees) so I removed the lower and drilled the pin location 1/2 inch back. I will measure and see what that nets me. I didn't want to over shoot this so I only moved it 1/2 inch. I am stiffening up this upper mount and my lower mount on the lower a-arm.
I am having fun and hope it will make this all the better.
Thanks to all who have made this an interesting thread.
