    I'm answering my own thread. If I run closer to the 4 degree side then when I articulate up it will increase the possitive castor more toward the 9 degree side CORRECT??????So 5 to 6 degree castor sound good to everyone?????? duhhh It sounds good to me but I've been in the sun all day wrenchin and had a couple coronas so who knows what I'm sayin........

          Well considering that caster affects how your vehicle handles at speed, who cares what your caster is when flexed unless you plan on running the rubicon at 80 mph.

            And whats wrong with running the Rubicon at 80?? I did say I had a couple coronas on board so now that it's morning I can see it was a slight oversight in my question thanks for your wisdom into all things common sense.LOL
