correct, as the chassis rolls the links pull the rear pod. its minimal- probably .030" would be my rough guess. look up imca and dirt late models for examples of extreme rear steer

Hmmm, I thought it was opposite, angled links have less length change in roll? That allows a smoother pod movement in roll than straight links provided the forward pivots are not raised. I really thought the only reason for straight links was that the battery got in the way and you could not run angled links like the oval cars do.

Look at the VIP Vorlon.
That one is running angles links without any problems.

You are correct. Angling the links as viewed from the top works as you have described, and has no effect on rear steer. Angling the links as viewed from the side gives rear steer.

Are the titanium front axles a must have? I bent one of the stockers and was looking for a replacement.

TOADYY 02-10-2018 09:45 AM

The titanium axles are a good to have they don't bend that easy.
