I have is that i have a mid-90s Biz kart which appears to still have its original type of stub axles which take a 12mm kingpin.

Being a smart ar$e i bought a new universal pair with an 8mm pin & some top hat spacers to reduce the hole size from 12-8mm.

What i didn’t realise what that the kingpin angle of the pre-99 Biz karts differs to pretty much everything made nowadays & so i’ve got what looks to be at least a couple of degrees worth of camber.

The kart has a yolk similar to this one http://margay27.smugmug.com/Karts/Route-66-NorwayNew-KG-BDE/i-MMX2QR7/0/L/DSC07690-L.jpg so could i use something like these to solve my issue? http://www.kartpartsuk.com/product.php?id=1171

If so, my query is that by using them, the tops of the stub axles would no longer be parallel to the underside of the yolk? How does this work?

Its beating me.
