1956-1977 EMPI Caster Shims - 1.25 Degrees
Typically, when lowering your Volkswagen, it alters the caster angle from positive to negative, resulting in wandering tendencies of the vehicle. Properly installed caster shims can aid in reinstating positive caster on your lowered VW, enhancing its straight-line stability.
Crafted from high-quality 6061 T-6 Aluminum, these EMPI caster shims are engineered to recalibrate the caster angle settings of your front suspension, restoring them to their original specifications. This adjustment is crucial for achieving a harmonious balance between high-speed stability, cornering performance, and steering responsiveness. Before installation, it's essential to assess your current caster angle, as these shims are sized for 1.25 degrees, providing an alternative to stacking shims for vehicles with drastically lowered front ends.
