List, I'm assuming I don't need a steering dampener on my street roadster. It has mucho caster at 15 degrees. It's a traditional Ford pickup box -drag link, straight axle, buggy sprung deal. I can't

I'm pretty sure I read in a magazine where a street rod builder used a 3M product to grind his tires free of lettering, etc. A call to their abrasive/ tech support people might be helpful. No doubt d
