Re: 79 series radius arms

do you have any caster correction for the 4" lift, im taking a wild guess but if you didnt have the correction you would be putting the load in the wrong places even more when it is flexed up.

it takes alot of precision measuring to get it to drive good ...

Re: hj75 gets the shakes at 95 to 100 km/h
