Default a lot to read

Sorry, I didn't read all but this is a not so clever designed upright.

Mickmate is right:
„You see they slotted that upper bracket for caster adjustment which is unnecessary as the lower arms are adjustable and usually the uppers are too.“

Also, I would use bigger bolts to hold the lower balljoint bracket. I believe they are 3/8“. And the bolts should come from through the bracket to the upright. If you sleeve the aluminum upright you may be able to use a M12 threaded insert.

AMP has a better set, if I am correct.

Do your steering arms point outwards?
