Picture Perfect Perches

Post by Redleg » Tue Oct 01, 2019 7:14 pm

Gents, trying to figure out if my front spring perches are installed correctly on my 25 Roadster. Everything I read says to make sure the boss is on the backside. My boss is a short guy with a bad toupee and he aint nowhere around. So, a picture from the driver’s side front - correct or no?

The most important thing is to make sure that your front axle leans back per the diagram, providing the correct caster angle. :)
