Love the fact I can get to +3 degrees caster and -.25 degrees camber with plenty of adjustment to spare. 1972 Road Runner GTX 440 6bbl 5-speed [img]http://72rrgtx.com/carpics/bucket/DSC06730r-1.jpg[/img]

Checking their site just now I couldn't locate the stainless complete UCA, do they still offer it? 1972 Road Runner GTX 440 6bbl 5-speed [img]http://72rrgtx.com/carpics/bucket/DSC06730r-1.jpg[/img]

Checking their site just now I couldn't locate the stainless complete UCA, do they still offer it? I question the use of stainless, its not an ideal welded material for this application, it looks nice, it resists rusting, but it is prone to cracking and fatigue to a greater extent in this application then 1020 type steels, and there is of course the extra cost for little if any strength advantages. Seems to me just give the buyer what they want. Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
