Front Castor Angle with Aftermarket Driveshaft

Hey man, after doing my research I ended up going with Tatton front and rears, 1310 u-joints. They seem to be of excellent quality with a lifetime warranty.They came with new flanges front and rear for both the diff and t-case. I've got the rear installed with no problems and I have the front flanges installed but not the shaft, waiting to decide what to do about my pinion/castor angle first.
You have any photos of the tattons? I may run one up front.

I have heard those shafts are pretty nice, but I have never owned any. Where did you get them from? How bad are the prices? I have a JE reels OEM style on my rear and it is ok, but I bont want that bid cv mass so far from the transfer in the front so I need to go another way. I doubt my stock front is gonna hang around much longer. just FYI if it helps any, on my tera 3" I am running just over 5* up front. I have thought about increasing, but it drives great right now. I think 7 might make my steering a bit heavy. What degree are you at right now?

Yea sorry I'm in the process of converting to u-joint style shafts and am confused on what kind of castor I can run with them.

I am a fan of 1310 DS's over 1350s or whatever. If something breaks I would much rather it be my u-joint. I think you made a smart choice.
edit: I don't go around breaking 1310s either anyway... so I think I will be way in the clear with them.
