Starting at $55.95, AutoBuffy stocks 6 alignment caster wedge multi-packs from MOOG. Caster wedges are tapered shims installed between the axle and leaf spring to correct caster angle without full suspension modifications. When caster is off, the vehicle pulls to one side, tires wear unevenly, and steering feels unstable — especially at highway speeds.
The most important buying decision is choosing the correct wedge angle — typically expressed in degrees — that moves your caster reading into the manufacturer's specified range. Multi-packs are sold with assorted or matched angles so you can dial in the exact correction needed. You also need to confirm the wedge fits your leaf spring width and bolt pattern before ordering.
| Option | Best for | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Assorted-Angle Multi-Pack | First-time correction or unknown starting caster reading | Several wedges at different degree increments so you can test and select the angle that brings caster into spec |
| Matched-Pair Single Angle | Replacing worn wedges when the correct angle is already known from a previous alignment printout | Two identical wedges ensuring equal caster correction on both sides for balanced handling |
| Heavy-Duty Steel Wedges | Trucks, work vehicles, or lifted International 150 builds subject to high load and off-road stress | Thicker steel construction resists compression and deformation under sustained heavy loads |
| Polymer / Composite Wedges | Daily-driven International 150 on paved roads where corrosion resistance and weight savings matter | Rust-proof material that maintains its angle over time without the surface oxidation common on bare-steel shims |
Safely raise and support the International 150, then loosen and remove the axle U-bolt nuts to free the existing wedge from between the leaf spring pack and the axle pad. Slide the new wedge into position with the taper oriented in the correct direction for your desired caster correction, reinstall the U-bolts, and torque the nuts evenly in a cross pattern to the manufacturer's specification. Always take the International 150 to an alignment shop immediately after installation to verify all angles are within spec before returning to normal driving.
