Correctly designed caster plates will do far more than “get you down the road”. In fact they are perfect for 99.5% of those with anywhere from a 2” to 4.5” lift and the type of off-roaring they do. This forum is a testament to that.
1.) Any and all caster plates do NOTHING more than correct your caster and do Nothing to aid in off road performance and in many cases hamper it.
2.) Delta's engineered arms do way more than ANY caster plate ever made.
3.)They are the new go to for smart guys for ease of installation requiring no special drills, tools, cutting, welding, modifying of stock components, or brackets.
4.)They offer huge benefits for those who really wheel with large tires and want the best bolt-on geomertry performance available today.
What is the Slee part number?I run the 3” slinky springs with Slee plates.
In my opinion the offset bearings are an expensive solution considering they would need to be replaced periodically as they are a wear item. The bearings are more prone to failure compared to stock because the rollers in the bearings run within a smaller diameter so either/both the rollers are smaller or there are a fewer number of rollers.
Cut and turn is not popular with the 80 crowd, probably because...
at 4" lift a cut and turn gains nothing over my plates and will actually have a higher degree of tie rod contact. Along with having the diff pointing more north which IMO could effect lubrication of the outer pinion bearing. But you can still probably run the stock drive shaft.
...is what it says on the box...but what's your actual measured lift, is what I meant?Ome 2.5 medium.
The true cut and turn is better than any band aid plates the arms are great I have a set of Delta's on my cruiser and it drives much better
I disagree. Once the truck is lifted the axle has rotated and alignments have changed. The spring perches are off which creates a bow in the spring, there is a twist in the pan hard stressing the bushings while at rest and the slope of the drag link is exaggerated effecting steering performance.
So counter rotating the whole axle helps correct all those alignments reducing those effects as well as correct your caster.
