Keep it up!

I reduced ackerman considerably by moving the bellcrank ballstud 3mm further forward. For carpet I just find that better. This required moving shocks slightly further forward. And by mounting bellcranks uppside down, got rid of that horrible bumpsteer the 22 gets at an 18mm ride height. Both tweaks just a matter of personal Preference.
Thanks! I am doing most of this just to learn. And I appreciate the added info you gave. Acherman is something I have never really played with and I have jumped into the deep end! What I also find interesting is how things interact with one another. You mentioned that you are running at 18mm (about where I am at) and this just made me realise how lower ride height = less weight transfer therefore less aggressive steering when cornering hard (read higher steering angles). Now you got me thinking about less kick up to encourage weight transfer. How would this play into things????

Now I'm confused at a higher level!
