Has anybody used this part?

It looks like this part http://www.justsuspension.com/rare-parts-control-arm-shaft-kit-15930.html will give some more positive caster, has anybody tried this part, and is it a good way to get some more positive caster?

Looks like a O.E.replacement.Can't say that it will give you more caster than the stock spec.

I think i have misunderstood a little bit here, i have mixed between camber and caster, which is NOT the same.
The part i refer to, is described as a "positive camber design", and is also said to improve steering response and to reduce vibrations, so this part has nothing to do with the caster angle.

Looks interesting. If you give it a try keep us updated.

The OE part is perfectly straight vs this Moog piece that is a bit offset. Not sure what problem it was intended to correct but the net impact is that it allows moving the upper control arm farther in or out to get the desired camber. Kinda not needed based on how much adjustment room there is in the control arm mount. The major challenge most alignment guys have is from the serated nut surfaces putting small gouges in the pivot arm. The bolts tend to want to go back to where they were when you torque them down and some scaly rust on the bottom of the mount will do the same thing.

Used it on my 79 300. Works great. Over the years, the upper A arm mounts have a tendency to bend in ( towards the middle of the car ). You then do not have enough adjustment travel to put the camber settings in to spec. The offset mounting holes in that mount will address the problem. Can help with caster setting also.
