Bob,

I dont know.
The wedges were made and fitted on entirely logical advice from Rick Cove and other replies to this thread. Sagging springs would reduce or remove the Castor angle, so fitting wedges from rear of springs re-instantes it.
My experiences over this weekend suggest that 6-degrees is too much, the reason being described by Dave Mills in an earlier post today. Hence I've left the 3-degree wedges in.
