This is some more info-NOT arguing or hating

Old skool front set-up-though dirt simple, involves a LOT of meticulous work if your remotely analy retentive!! Also-its not real fast to make camber or caster change while retaining ride height as well as a shifting of other adjustments. In other words a change in caster might chnage your ride height and it also most likey will make a chnage in camber.

You are also shimming for camber and caster via a collection of plastic shims and pieces of paper, cardstock, etc.

Again-if your not too detail oriented, then old skool is even easier, but if you take the time to measure axle height, camber, caster then it can be very time consuming.

For sure the Rev.3 and Rev 4 love the old skool front end. The L4's seem to excell with the reactice as does the T-fource and 3.2's.

Heres something cool though. I once built my Rev3 up with a Trinity SB2002 front end with a little bit of reactive dialed in and it was awesome!!
