Ok thanks for establishing that Im a retard and shoulda went to Wikipedia. Ive got a new track bar coming in as well as some steering stuff and Im ready to get this thing right. I know my caster is at 8 degrees positve and needs to be moved to 4 degrees. What is the best method to correctly measure or establish wheelbase? Im thinking Im short about .75 of an inch.

Hey, man, nobody's calling you a retard....I'm sure every single person has asked a question and then thought "Huh, I could've Googled that instead..." I know I have. It's a valid question, too.

[URL=http://s4.photobucket.com/user/shum8/media/5BAA60E1-145A-4FA9-B3DB-177ED046BB62_1.png.html][/ Besides, this is what I found. At any rate....I think my wheelbase may be short. Shouldnt the order of this be. Establish correct wheelbase, center front axle, adjust caster then adjust toe??? I have a RC X series 4.5 lift with adjustable LCAs and UCAs.
