Isn't the holes on the caster block in a different location?

The 2 hole was out first, so they just added an outer most hole with the 3. But, yes.

If you're still running TLR your points are erroneous.

lol, I assume this was a joke, lol. What car he is currently running has no impact on the number of holes and the history behind it.

There is no caster block height adjustment. If you have the older non-hex steering blocks you can adjust the steering block height, but not the hex blocks.

You may mean the steering knuckle ?

It can be raise or lowered by adjusting the .030 shims .

Caster blocks come in 20,25 & 30 degree caster....
Gt2 & T4 used the 3 hole 30 degree
