Those are the existing caster bushings in degrees....3/4 and 1.02. Getting between 2.5 and 4 degrees of caster will help a lot.

That's what I'm shooting for 3 degrees it better. Why would they have a 1 degree 2 minute bushing. Why not just 1 degree? Also want to add bilstein dual steering stabilizer.

update: what does this translate to? Right side shows 3/4 degrees very plainly.
Could this be 1/2 degree?
