Roger, I want to run 9 degrees castor, I know its a lot but that's wat I think I need. What would you suggest I do with regard to moving the top arm?

this might/will sound silly, but wouldnt it be easier to just put shims under the front subframe rear mounts to tilt the whole subframe back a bit? rather than modify top arms etc? "Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

Joeybaby, You can be right if you want to be but I won't be tilting my subframe.

9 does seem a lot. I run 3.5 with an LSD and it works fine for me.

what i was thinking is that if your at 6 or 7 and want that extra bit without having to modify the top arms, what harm would tilting the subframe back a few degree have?

Will, It's all down to personal preference, if your settings are good for you that's great. No it's not a straight line thing.
