CAB-CHASSIS CASTER CORRECTION MEASUREMENT
1. Take a height measurement to the center of the front gauge hole in the frame. Take another measurement to the center of the rear spring hanger
bolt. Take these measurements on both sides of the vehicle.
2. Subtract the front measurement from the rear measurement and use the average between the right and left side. Use this number with the Caster
Correction Chart to obtain the preferred caster angle.
