Caster Shims. If your car does not track correctly or wants to hunt when going down the freeway most likely you need more positive caster.(lower part of the beam pushed out) Stock VW's have this built in but when you lower the car you take this away and you will need to add extra caster back. On race cars or cars that will be dreven at high speeds you may need 2x sets of caster shims to stack on top of each other. Our Racer Kit comes with 4x caster shims and 2x extra long bolts to replace the 2x lower beam bolts. How to install. Once you lower your VW the beam you will need more positive caster added back in to it. To do so you unbolt the 4x main bolts that hold the beam to the pan, just loosen them, don't completely remove. Once you have enough space behind the lower of the two beams, slide one each caster on each side shim between the beam and pan to space the lower section out or moved forward. The caster shim is only installed on the lower beam. Re tighten the 4x bolts and inspect. 2x caster shims for one car. $14.99 Racer Kit: 4x caster shims and 2x longer lower bolts $29.99 Extra long lower bolts only, grade 8 $9.99 These items qualifie for "FREE Shipping" Click here for more info. |
