nicjasno Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Your steering link needs to be the same length and same inclination as the suspension arm it is closest to. So because you probably use the 6L link, it needs to be close to a 6L suspension arm and angled the same way. Otherwise you will get bump steer. Quote
Technyk32231 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 That's not my design. Bump steer is mitigated as the steering arm is close to the 6.5 A-arm on the bottom. As the car goes around the corner, the outside will dive down. As this happens, the contact patch needs to remain consistent. This is done by the decreasing camber as rolls moves outside. The toe in is neutral at no depression. The increasing toe-in during depression allows the car to oversteer the outside wheel during body roll. Some racecars do that, but they accomplish it by using reverse Ackermann geometry. Quote
