When I used shortened Corolla struts, I had about 4-1/2° caster - a few degrees more than the Corolla came with. Self-centering was nonexistant. When I...

I just discovered the JC Whitney lamps I bought 6-8 years ago are oddball in that they use a sealed beam unit that is about 6-3/8" dia. and JCW doesn't sell...
Thanks for the comments, Greg. My plan is to start out with about 5.5 deg. and be able to add more if needed, depending on how the car feels. This has turned...
Keith, I bought my JCWhitney beach buggy headlamps more than 20 years ago. The 7" sealed beams fit them fine, I paid $49.95 for them then, I bet the price has...
