You can fix them pretty easily too. I pulled mine and stripped back the shield, and found the broken wire. Soldered it back up, added some heat shrink, and boom, no more ABS light.

I just noticed a small leak in my radiator. I just ordered a new radiator, thermostat, upper/lower hoses, serpentine belt from Rock Auto. At 132,000 miles my temp. gauge has never gone beyond midpoint. Even with the loss of coolant, it still has never overheated. The past month, I have smelled the coolant smell and that prompted my inspection of my radiator.
I expect to have the work done by my buddy next week.

Is it common for the caster to vary that much on either side? I only ask because I'll be doing an alignment after I install my UCA's and was planning to have them put the caster around 3.5 and go from there.

no thats shitty workers not wanting to put the time and effort in to doing things right
3.0-3.5* caster is a very good plan
this is how i will be going shortly as well
your other #'s should read camber 0* and toe 0* or as close as one can get

I think I'm around 3-3.5" suspension.
Yes, that's with the LR UCA's.
Compared to how it was, I am happy... It has a pull to it that I noticed on the way home. I'm gonna have them realign it next Monday. I don't have time any sooner
I have no idea haha.

where was the leak at? i just replaced my radiator two days ago because it was leaking, at 123k, and mine never overheated but i was dripping coolant at a disappointing rate

It was a slow leak coming from the lower, driver's side of the radiator. On the engine side(inner side) of radiator.

I'm just going on what I've collected from other people. I want to say I read a thread where [MENTION=86678]ebg18t[/MENTION] and [MENTION=87687]LTDSC[/MENTION] mentioned they were running around 4.0 of caster and they are both about an 1-1.5" taller in the front than me so I figure around 3-3.5 would be good for my setup. No body lift and 31's and my front fenders are right at 37.5" I may set my 885's to the .85 setting on my bilsteins when I swap out the UCA's but I'm still debating it. I would like to get the front up just a bit more but I'm really worried about the CV boot's leaking.

I'm at 40" floor to fender with my 265/65/17's. 1.25" of bodylift, eibach, toytec 1/2" top plate spacer, and 5100's set on .85"

I think a lot of it really comes down to personal preference but I would think you would be happy around 3.5-3.75 degrees. I would mainly just make sure they get that 2.3 fixed on your passenger side.
