Default Caster blocks with no markings?

The caster blocks on my 22 have no markings on them for what degree they are.

Does anybody know which these may be? I thought they may be kit 10deg ones but the manual shows the kit ones having a 10 marked on them.

I think they are kit, I was changing some on my sons car and noticed the same thing on the std kit ones on the car, no marking, seems a bit of a strange thing to do as you would think all the caster blocks come from the same production line. maybe the spares are made at a different place to the kits

The other interesting thing is on the exploded view in the parts manual the caster blocks have no part number shown but the parts list shows TLR1057 10 degree all other blocks are in the options section, so I guess your deduction is correct

The steering knuckles were the same way = 4-degrees trailing, but not marked either.

I think, and don't quote me on this, but those would be from the original batch of kits (10-degree) when they didn't have other option caster blocks yet available.
