    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    Yes, my 64c, 72c and 75 Dart and 87 Fifth Ave do self-center. I didn't explore the setup on the 98 Deville that I just sold because it required a very high steering effort on the interstate that I suspect was due in part to the firm feel style rack and pinion steering setup.

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    Yes. It will when coming out of a turn in town and driving through slow and moderate speed turns. But on straight roads it will follow the road crown or wind force. Caster will make the car follow any force presented to it. It's only ability to run straight is from the forward inertia of the...

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    This simple question is still out there. If my height is correct, if my toe is zero, Should my wheels self-center if I max out the caster? Do your C-body wheels self center, like your (you name it) front-wheel-drive sedan with macpherson struts?

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    The spindle shaft is not cast 90 degrees to the ball joints. Thats called included kingpin angle. It can't be adjusted. Setting the camber is accomplished by moving the ball joint in and out from the motor. It doesn't affect factory cast in kingpin inclination/angle. Get this book. It's all in...

    Database, huh? Darn.....I guess we're not getting anything else from him. But I'll add it to the Registry with the info we have, and maybe someday we'll get tag and door info. Thank you, Manny.

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    Well, maybe they are only seeing new strut cars? I don't fault them for not being handy with our old cars. A good truck shop could probably do it. And as said earlier, it depends on the radial tire.

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    The top ball joint is closer to the (center?) of the car than the lower ball joint. That's kingpin angle? Is that not camber? This is cracked. On our cars the spindle is always 90 degrees to the knuckle. So when will kingpin inclination ever not be camber angle?

    Yes the New Orleans car and yes i messaged him to see if he'd share a picture of the tag. But all he said was it's in the database and gave me those numbers.

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    I thought it was settled that shops today have no clue how to work with our cars, and if they did they'd be using specs that were correct for bias tires and not radials? Is this not true?

    How to adjust caster (if indeed you can with stock parts?)

    I would be happy paying the shop to line it up, but they all charge $100 here and it sometimes takes several different attempts to get it the way I want it. And of course I owed them for each attempt. I did have to completely level the work area with plywood squares under the tires and get the...

    1969 polara noisy engine fan

    I just installed a new clutch on my 440's fan, and it too roars like a school bus. I hate it, but the car definitely runs cooler than it used to. Not sure what to do.

    Manny, I might be a bit confused on 230943. I assume you're talking about the New Orleans car (and not the Finland car). And is "he" the seller in the ad?
