Does anyone here know the caster degree on original plastics for the old DEX410R ?

I think with the original dex410r it works out 17degree's , plus the kick up angle etc , but 17degree on the caster block.

Hmm,, well i found out that the chassis have 12 degree kickup in the front, and 13 in the rear, and when mesuring the original hub carrier, i get 5 degrees, and that makes sense somewhat as 12+5=17 degrees in total.

But i was thinking more like hub had 1-3 degrees, as everywhere you can read that drivers adding the 17-19 alu option hub carrier says that the car is much more calm to drive.

I doubt that Team Durango accually adds 17 degrees to the kickup, so i think that the 17 degree they print on the hub carrier is what you'll get in total by using that specific hub carrier. please correct me if i'm wrong.

the plastic and unmarked aluminum are 17*, the 19 and 21's are marked. That is the total castor angle. anything less then the 17's would be insane to try driving

The car should be less twitchy with the 19's or even less with the 21's but will add on power steering!
