Im going to try some new setups this weekend. Going to try reducing camber gain through reducing caster to see if that has a similar feel as to reducing camber gain by raising the hinge pin block. Going to see the pros and cons of both. Testing is fun

From your diagram it looks like your RC is at ground level.

A set screw now will go into the pivot ball, the standoff threads onto the set screw and then you hold the hinge pin block on by threading the 2 4-40 screws into the standoffs. I figured it would be a nice option for those who want to shim high without stacking a bunch of shims. The new standoff kit will include the standoffs,2 4-40 x 5/16 set screws and 2 4-40 x 1/4 flathead screws. I will get them on the website today or tomorrow.
Getting my order set up online, is this the part number for the standoff kit? CH1070
