ScotcH, and many more, know much more about the dynamics of setting up a race suspension than I do. That said, I have found that within the travel of the front suspension the angle at the end of the sway bar changes drastically to that of the lower A arm and therefore the hard mounted bushing wears accordingly. I have seen an end link set up, similar to this, on a spider in the past and it just made sense, provided an interesting challenge and yes, I love mechanical bling!!
I'm am doing it more for the fun of it than anything else. I really enjoy the challenge and the seat of my pants engineering.
So, one thing crossed my mind today... What about the rim clearance?
So
I thought it best to get one on and see where I screwed up. Everything seemed fine until the suspension is fulling loaded in a hard corner. Then
I have decided that, before I take it all apart again, I will swap my other cross member with the steering rack in and see if I am turning it further than it will actually go.
The other direction, no problem.
Either way, it sure is great to see a wheel on the front of this car after 18 months!!!
Also picked this up today,
Freshly bored for these
Rings from total seal are still about a week out, but I have paint!!!
