    Rough Country long arms - can't gain caster

    Sorry. I'm wondering with the bend in the main arm if I shortened it, if it would increase my caster. My background is in programming and somehow I never learned trig and figuring out the geometry of these arms is beyond me. The cutting and welding would be done on the short upper arm. I can...

But like I said I've had to do it multiple...
