Default Re: Something is not right!

To check the Angle on the Steering arms you want to tie a string to the front of the steering arm at the spindle and then run the string to the centre of the rear axle. The arm should be in line with the string. If it's in or out the arm is bent. This is a problem when they build "Streched Limo's" The car is made 3 feet longer or more and the arms are left stock. Then the toe and steering angles are out. Picked this up out of Steve Smith's book. Advanced Race Car Development (or Suspension) and Design. .Hope this helps. JP
