Front alignment, bump steer kits, lowered front
So comments on al this....along with front tires.
I was thinking about this http://www.spohn.net/?action=product&pid=1802 kit.
and going with a MT sportmans front designed for the heavier cars....
any thoughts, I also want to know where some of you guys are running for caster/camber and how much toe in your running if any.
I need to do mine again...the a-arms keep moving

Here's the funny part. One of his Pro-Mod competitors is the local front-end and chassis alignment guru (David, the guy that did my alignment). And, he wouldn't talk with David to get some help (he fought the problem for months). David goes down the track straight every time and that is something to be said for a Pro-Mod car.
All I remember on my front-end alighment now is; the toe-in (left & right) is set to -.005. I could call David about the castor and camber setting on my car, he has a high-tech digital alignment system.

What do you think about that bup steer kit? I have a stock rack and spohn k-member. The tie rods are way out of line with the front fenders 26.5" to the ground.
I also want to keep the car a little les violent taking off. Maybe limiters are next

Why are you switching to the heavy front tire? Do you street drive the car ever?
Top secret front alignment specs here, however you can plot your own bumpsteer with a laser (home depot)hung off your front hub and a piece of graphboard posted on a wall in front of your car. Its a little bit of work, but you'll learn a ton.
Bumpsteer kits are pretty cheap spend the dime if you need it.

I spent some loot at a circle track place today.
got the longacre stuff and adapters to do the alignmant. I have turn plates.
Tom...PM me somewhere to get close, I might pay you.
I'm going to order the bumpsteer kit. Just won't have it til nmext week.
I thought those tires would help.....They are for heavier cars and this car is right over 3k. The tires on it look like they are about to bust all the time with 50 psi in them

I understand the small details add up. But with limited time and money I might find a better route to go. One example would be, wait until I can buy an aftermarket k member, then worry about applying this added knowlegde.
