This is how i make sure my alignment is perfect! 4 wheel Computurized alignment system lets me adjust Caster, Camber, and Toe (where applicable)
Respectfully disagree.Alignment don't matter that much in dirt.
So I guess steering doesn't matter that much in the dirt.Alignment don't matter that much in dirt.
So going down the freeway @ 80 is the same as 60 in the dirt?
I beg to differ.
Alignment is important depending on track conditions.
But, if you got it, might as well use it.
Let me know the track width and i will measure it tomorrowHmmm. Can we put our trophy kart up there or would it be too narrow?
Caster is adjustable by adding a spacer in the front of the a arm pivots for positive caster or behind the pivot to lower caster. And luckily Lonestar's jig must be set up pretty good, because i have right at -.3 degree of camber which works great!Is your suspension caster and camber adjustable?
I left it on the rack and climbed in it with me and one other passenger and the numbers didnt change much, which is great. Bump steer is near to nothing and the camber change was within a tenth of a degree. I dont run much more weight than that so i didnt add anymore weight.Branden are you adding weight to the car before aligning to simulate gear, riders?
I agree i think alignment matters in any drivng dicipline, and i love to have my steering wheel exactly straight haha. I deff notice the bigest diffence with the perfect caster, camber, and toe adjustmentsRespectfully disagree.
Anytime you can eliminate scrub, and get more tire in contact with the ground you are going to notice a difference. We do alignments on cars that run 1/4 miles, and after the alignment they do show faster times.I agree, i had my toe out about 3/8 of an inch and it was all over the place. Took it to an alignment shop and we did the same thing and its WAY better now
YES! And alignment is everything EVERYWHERE!!!!Caster is adjustable by using under/over sized delrin bushings at the arm pivots.
And alignment is everything in the dirt.
So what do you set the rear toe at?Anytime you can eliminate scrub, and get more tire in contact with the ground you are going to notice a difference. We do alignments on cars that run 1/4 miles, and after the alignment they do show faster times.
I am toed in .5 degrees and cambered in .7 degrees on both left and right in the rear per my adjustments.....So what do you set the rear toe at?
That will effect the handling big time.
