Now, with 4 allen bolts positively locating the lower shafts, it's even better than factory.
Right now, you at the perfect point of doing the caster mod that I did in my '64 build thread. You will need to find a machine shop that can duplicate the spot-face holes in your lower crossshaft. It's a very easy mod that will move the lower control arm forward 3/4" and help you gain some much-needed caster.

Cool thanks, Im back at it this week. How did you remove the lca shaft mount? Did you cut the head off, beat on it and thats it or did you have to drill it out
