looks cool. I have a question about the m2 front end. How do you know where to put the upper arm mounts? I have never done one and want to do it on my next personal project, so I am just kinda curious. Is it just ... level it and center it? What about height from the lower mount? No caster change built in? Basically how was it to install and setup?

Well the heidts setup came with the specs and measurements listed in the install directions. It has caster built in as well as anti-dive. It' was pretty easy I think just measure everything a million times and your good.
