I have a set of caster correctors that I installed in my 73 sii drove it down the road and it still wanders so I took them out. Maybe someone who is thinking about buying them would like to save some money. I also have a set of extended shackles I no longer need these are 5 inches center to center.
I am in oroville, CA.

Caster correctors $35 + shipping
shackles $ 50 + shipping
pm me, Mike

Possibly, the tires May be an issue, the alignment is at 1/8" toe-in. I suspect as I did more research that the issue May be the inability to set the pre-load on the upper ball joints. I put 2 degree caster shims under the axle and it made a huge difference although did not completely eliminate the wander. Based on what I've read cc's seem to work for some and not at all for others. I just figured since I was replacing the ball joints I'd give it a shot.

This is why we won't sell castor correctors. Unless you get lucky with getting them in the proper orientation while also getting the upper ball joint properly preloaded it will lead to premature ball joint failure.
