originally i planned to put some webbing between the two main bars, but i dont think it is needed.

this is out of 1" x 1 1/2" x 085" rectangular tubing - i think i like it better than using round tubing

i haven't weighed it, but it is a bit lighter than oem, maybe about a pound

comments??? suggestions???

Chuck: That looks pretty good. Simple and strong. Reversible too.

Maybe the rear pin needs better bracing or full circle welding. I'd grind the arm to fit almost 3/4 around and weld along the seams then around the ends for strength. Can this be spaced for more caster?

Looks like good clearance on the ball joint end to the wheel. I'm guessing about 1-1 1/4" spaced down. That ought to handle the camber gain under bump. Is the arm longer? The ball joint has a taper on the shaft, is that the special one you were talking about so no drilling out the tapered hole?

BTW will this fit both B13 and B14 ? Also time frame for production?
