Thanx X-bird for the welcome back, I have been following your adventures- I have 10" wheels and can't go any bigger with the set-up I have right now. I figured for anyone interested that I'd show what 8 years of abuse does to the 1/2" heims on the A-arms (pics below)and the machine bolt at the spindle. I also made some progress on the new A-arms and golf cart spindles. I forgot how much measuring is involved in just getting the KPI (king pin inclination),the caster (9 degrees) is built into the front plate of the Spiderbox so that didn't have to be calculated. I went with 10 degrees for the KPI, a welding error
of an 1/8" difference in the A-arm length changed the KPI by 3 degrees, so I had to cut and re-weld one arm. The conversation about even & un-even A-arms has come full circle!! I now have un-even A-arms, the golf cart spindles had them built into the set-up so I went with it. Won't know if it's an improvement until I test drive it. Rack replacement will be here tomorrow so that chore will take some time to figure out. I still have to make the steering tabs based off where I need to move the rack since these spindles are totally different than the ones I'd made before. It's still raining so the kid's aren't suffering! Maybe I'll get to test it this weekend (no rain in the forecast). I also included a pic of the trailer hub/spindles I took off (about twice as heavy)
