    To get more caster you do them in and out as stated above.

    Install them opposite of the instructions they came with, or exactly like the pic I posted.

    the reason the instructions say, (install both outwards), is these were produced as crash parts, to help with alignment after crash repair. they were not produced to be used as we use them. (to increase caster) hope this helps.   :2cents:

    The left side of my cuda didn't want to give enough caster, looking at the specs it was deter-mend the front of the tower was in. I have use of A chief EZ liner, so I clamped her down used A grade 8 bolt and washers and gave it A pull. sent it back to the alignment shop and WA-la. :2cents:

    Oh....well I called qa1 they have never put the moog offset bushings into their upper control arms...and couldn't say if they will work...I hate being the Guinea pig...but it looks like it doesn't work...unless I'm missing something...

    No way those will squeeze up in there with both ends on!!!!  Figures my luck!!

    The QA1 control arms are already built with additional caster in them, unlike the stock arms. You shouldn't need offset bushings in those to get improved caster numbers.
