This is my second 2008 Superduty 4x4.
First one was a bit of a learning curve. Did 2.5" level kit, then added cams for adding back caster but I feel ball joint life was compromised. I added an extra 1" spacer to get 3.5" level, and went back to stock cams and a radius arm drop brackets.
Now I have a (new to me) F350 that previous owner added 2.5" levelling kit and cams. It's ball joint time. First - what is the best amount of caster on these trucks? I remember when I was doing my first one that more than stock was better (I don't recall what stock was but maybe it was 2.5ish degrees???).
I could use cams, radius arm drop brackets, or adjustable length radius arms. I see BDS has a redesigned radius arm requiring no drop brackets...
Input please??
