Has anybody priced the new 26 steering box?

Adjusting caster changes the angle at which the differentials pinion sits. Setting caster to max causes the pinion to rotate and point downward. So every degree of caster equals a degree of pinion angle. This means the CV joint on the drive shaft must account for that change in angle. When the cv at the pinion changes so must the one at the transfer case. The change is proportional. So that puts the Transfer case joint even farther out of spec when the suspension is at full travel. The pinion or differential side naturally sits at less of an angle than the transfer case so adjustment doesn't really cause issues on that side.
Thank you for saving me the typing!
 
Ineos just installed a software update to many of the 71 Grenadiers that attended the UK Grenadier meeting Yorkshire this weekend - a great improvement to on-road driving experience to my 2025 model.
 
I had a 26 for a few thousand miles. It’s much more centered on the highway at 90mph and has an improved turning radius. On everyday suburban traffic windy roads, you don’t notice the change. All things being equal the 26 box is worth the change.

I was wondering if they increased the toe a bit too. Prior to getting the front axle replaced and then resetting it to ‘24 specification, I had it at 2.3* caster and a tad more toe, which felt similar to the 26.
