    Default Re-drilling Castor Arm into LCA?

    Hey guys.

    Been looking for ways to move, re drill etc.. my castor arms for more lock. so was thinking. If i re-drilled the castor arm holes to up further towards the crossmember, would it effect handling, alignment that much?
    Thanks,
    Andrew.

    Would you mean drilling the castor rod holes in toward the xmember more? ie not moving them "up towards" anything, but rather moving both sides in closer to the centre of the car?

    Guessing this is to let the inside of your wheels to clear them more?

    Also, moving them in towards xmember is going to increase the stress on them alot more.. also would be bending the castor rods inward more aswell..

    The best idea i have would be increasing the length of the lca as to move your wheels further out away from the castor rods..
