I have also seen the castor rod modded so that it attaches to the LCA with a rose joint, this eliminates some of the problem with the angle changing as the LCA moves forward. Still have an issue with the castor rod not pulling straight where it mounts to the chassis though.

hi guys here is a pic of the castor rods on my ute , the multiple holes on the body are to adjust the anti dive geometry . the rods have a left hand and right hand threaded adjusting shaft in the middle of them, and to add to bennys bump steer spacers , while they have a affect on the bump steer their primary function is to get the lca pointing uphill again on a lowered car to raise the front roll center back up to where it was , the bump steer is a secondary benifit.
