Tony Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 For the domestic home grown owner it's reasonable to assume any Geometry would display symmetry over the axle, but this is not necessarily true? Since the figures displayed during a calibration are also representative of forces it's possible to use this to our advantage, namely belaying "eventual drift" due to the road crown. Small manipulations within the OEM suggested disparity corridor can be used without threatening tyre wear. Historically (UK) a bias in camber or castor are our tools, here is the method i use> Camber NSF more negative 30' or OSF more positive 30' Castor NSF more positive 45' or OSF more negative 30' In motorsport huge disparities are used.... If you can imagine a race on an oval like Nascar then "Geometric stagger" is common place using camber or castor forces to assist the driver.
