October 6, 200321 yr comment_52145 Yes, there is some useful info there.For the Z, it looks like that if you increase caster by increasing the effective length of the tension rods you will get more Ackerman as well. A good thing apparently, within reason. If I have this right, lengthening the tension rods will bring the tie rod's outer pivot point forward (in front) of the steering rack pivot point. Which increases Ackerman. As they say, you can get the same result by moving the rack rearwards, not readily doable with a Z.Conversely, increasing caster by moving the strut top pivot point rearwards will not change Ackerman at all.Comments?
