Rear axles don't have caster.
Are you asking about pinion angle in relation to drivshaft?

Got it. Just curious which one. I didn't know if you were using POR-15, Rustoleum, etc...

Your build is looking great so far.

How do you get the hard top to go in easier and further in... I have a huge gap between lift gate and tailgate... this is a different hard top than the original.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The wagon tops or full cabs I’ve owned all had a gap that wide and the tailgate ‘rubber gasket’ covered up and sort of sealed it.

Great to hear that, I’ll get the gasket when it comes time for paint prep

Might consider getting it sooner rather than later.
That way in case your top is like so many, and has a bigger gap than the gasket can fill, you can deal with that first and not delay your paint prep.

New duff power brake kit installed
Just have to hook up the wiring and the vacuum line

I have a bunch of vacuum spots in the manifold to use and plug up… does it matter which one I use? Also I think one of th m goes to the valve cover on the other side that is missing a hose
