Caster Angle Question

[AustyPosty]

Hey everyone. I recently put on the AEV 2.5" dualsport suspension, I set the upper control arms to the "max" setting on the drop brackets for caster angle adjustment, and came up with 5.2 degrees of caster. I was hoping for at least 6. I was thinking about adding the Mopar Extended Front lower control arms as a cheap way to get the caster closer to 6. However, I believe if I add those arms ill be around 7.2 degrees of caster. Is this too much caster angle? Not really worried about driveline vibes as I do have the FAD. Jeep drives decently at the moment but I am a perfectionist or maybe just obsessive, I dont know lol.

Is your 7.2 caster estimate in keeping the AEV caster washers set at max? Perhaps the Mopar extended LCA caster could be mitigated by adjusting the AEV caster washers down?

Otherwise consider a set of adjustable LCAs. Clayton is good to work with, as is Rock Krawler and Metal Cloak.

I added the Mopar performance LCAs to stock Rubicon and got 1 degree of Caster. See my alignment data sheets in this thread. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/...s-to-mopar-extended-lcas-caster-change.99026/
