Suspension settings

[Ex-Biker]

Has anyone got any basic measurements that I can set the suspension and steering to before I take the car off the stands?

Hi mate.

I've got sent this info from Marlin.... based on a 1600 being built

Ride height 6" from the bottom chassis rails.

Camber 1/2 deg negative at ride height. (F & R)

Tracking 3mm of toe in (never to be more than parallel ... F & R)

Steering attachment arms (hub) adjust so as to make the steering arm run parallel with the floor and the rack centre.

This is a suggested starting point. Personal preference may suggest that some variation would be preferred.

There are not any definite rights for steering geometry settings but there are a few definite wrongs try starting from where I've suggested, then experiment..

HTH.
