Absolutely correct, no legal obligation. Just as if you are taking your evening walk and see your neighbor's small child fall in to their swimming pool -- you know, the sweet little handicapped child that can't swim. You're under absolutely no legal obligation to pull her out of the water. So you and ol' Shel' can just keep on walking, safe in the knowledge that you're under no legal obligation....

"But hon, I wasn't under any legal obligation, and besides, I didn't want to get my Bruno Maglis wet."

Sometimes it's better to write those long posts off-line.

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?
