set up radius rod caster

Hi all ..... I am fairly new to this here message board.....I posted on the wrong forum the first time I am building a '32 ford roadster , my question ..... i don't have a ride height yet but I want to set the caster.... how do I go about it ????? Do I level the frame and then set it to 5-7 degrees then weld the tab to the bottom of the frame ????? Thanks, Older Boater

 

If you don't have the ride height figured out, you can't position the axle and therefore cannot set the caster. The axle has to be set in relation to the frame and the rake of the frame has to be set. Otherwise you are just pissing in the wind
