Just got done with the level kit on my 07 250 4x4, looking for some ideas on adjusting my castor. I know the upper ball joint has a bushing in it that can be changed but has anyone used the BD Castor Kit that goes on the radius arm? Wondering how hard it is to install and if i should go a different route. Here is a link to the item. Thanks

BD-Power Cam Caster Adjuster Kit 1032100

 

I've swapped my ball joints before and i know what bushing you're talking about. I'll start off with, that is not a job i will do in my drive way again. Even though you are dealing with just the bushing, (depending on how old they are) since you're tearing it down, why not replace the ball joints too.

I would get the alignment check by a professional shop that deals with off road set ups, not the run of the mill shops that deal primarily with OEM set ups. Go from there. You might be good, you might need to adjust depending on what you want. A suspension expert will help you reach your goals with out blindly making adjustments that may or may not work based on your set up and desires.

 

I can tell by the way the truck steers that the castor needs to be corrected. I dont wanna tear my steering knuckles all down so thats why i wanted to go with the bd kit

 

I bought Radius arm drop brackets to get my caster back. They were about $150. I now have -4.5degrees. The truck track's way better, but the steering is heavy. YMMV
O it took like 30 minutes to install them. My leveling kit was 2.5", the bracket's were for 3".http://www.ebay.com/itm/RADIUS-ARM-DROP-DOWN-BRACKET-WITH-1-LOWER-SPACERS-4WD-4X4-FOR-LIFT-KIT-/261311364482?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd75efd82&vxp=mtrEdit: I believe the BD kit requires you to remove your radius arm's, cut the lower mount off, than weld or bolt there mount's in. After that, there mount's are kinda like a cam, and you can adjust them as needed.

 

I just started a thread asking about the same thing. I'm still chasing death wobble issues. let me know what you come up with or end up doing.
