[QUOTE="zukkev, post: 1011613, member: 17121"] The Degree shim WILL affect caster; if the "fat" end of the shim is toward the front of the rig, this will effectively move the upper king pin/ ball joint forward and the lower back, reducing caster angle. Ideally you'd want 3 to 5 degrees positive caster for most applications. If it's less, you're likely to experience wandering (vehicle does'nt like to track straight.) I agree with Dove'd85 that shims up front are not a good idea, especially on a DD!! [/QUOTE]
