Steering arm angle (be horizontal or not) makes no difference. They can be vertical with 8 twists and turns and still work, but what is critical is where the small ball joint is mounted to the steering arm in relation to the upper and lower ball joints. That's where problem begin with bump steer and all sorts of issues. It's the same on the inner end and where the steering knuckle on the end of the race is located in relation to the upper and lower control arm mounting points. That's why I cringe when I see people start moving racks, inner mounting points, ball joints, spring rates, lowering amounts and God knows what else when they obviously have no idea what moving those things does to the basic geometry because it can be bloody dangerous. I said as much before but it falls on deaf ears sometimes. |
