In professional chassis tuning, getting an accurate caster or camber reading requires a rock-solid connection between your gauge and the wheel. The Longacre 52-78306 Stepped Tips are the specialized replacement contact feet designed for the Longacre Quick Set Caster/Camber Adapter.
Unlike standard flat or pointed tips, these "stepped" versions feature a tiered diameter design. This allows the adapter to securely "hook" onto the inner lip of a wheel rim or center hub, providing a stable, hands-free mounting point that won't slip during the alignment process. Whether you are working with deep-dish racing wheels or standard street-stock rims, these tips provide the mechanical interface needed to ensure your gauge is perfectly indexed to the wheel's rotation.
Key Features
-
Tiered "Step" Design: The multi-diameter profile allows these tips to seat firmly against various rim edge thicknesses and hub centers, providing a versatile fit across multiple wheel styles.
-
Positive-Lock Contact: The "step" creates a mechanical stop that prevents the adapter from sliding off the rim during the "sweep" of a caster measurement.
-
Direct Replacement Fit: Engineered specifically for the Longacre Quick Set Caster/Camber Adapter (LON78428/78430), allowing for a tool-free swap between different tip styles.
-
High-Strength Machined Steel: Built to withstand the compression forces of the adapter and the daily wear of a professional race shop or trackside trailer.
-
Non-Marring Accuracy: Precision-machined to provide a flat, square contact surface that delivers dead-on alignment data without damaging expensive wheel finishes.
