1. Why balance the car with the shocks void of oil? Once you add oil, wouldn't that ruin any spring balance you were attempting to achieve?
2. The whole idea of the drop test is ironic because your car is never stationary nor does it hit a bump with all four tires at the same time. The front tires hit and then the rear. It seams as though the car would be further out of balance once it was put into motion.
3. Since camber links are more of a fine tuning adjustment, what happens after you have followed this setup advice and have exhausted the tuning range of the camber links?
For the record, I understand setup very well , but I am wondering how much further the information in this forum will go. Or does it stop at the camber links?
1. Once in motion the springs will keep the "up" equally, the oil is more to "dampen" the oscillations that would happen if it were spring only.
2. Kind of like the guys who push their car backwards to test the slipper ? Gotta see them all at once, if you picked up just one end then the other it would be difficult to tell
3. all kinds of good info in here, I read from page one and cut and paste and stick it in the race binder !
