Re: [T3] Squareback Dims Wanted


Problem is, that the torsion bars have all taken a set with age... so the
unloaded dimensions and angles are only a starting point.  Sometimes, and as
happened with me, the spring rates from one side to the other are
different... so starting with equil angles initially gives a lopsided car
when loaded and each side affects the other...

A real pain!  But hang in there... Youll get it.
