Default Attn Ryans4 -- alignment question...

Ryan,

Talking about alignments before, you suggested the following as an aggressive street set-up:

Non-Freeway People:
Front Camber = -2 degrees
Front Toe = ZERO
Front Ride Height = 25.25" Minimum
Rear Camber = -1.5 degree
Rear Toe = ZERO to - 1/16 OUT
Rear Ride Height = + 1/4" from Front Min/Max

I am not clear on what you meant for the rear ride height. If the front is set to the minimum (25 ¼ inches). Then are you suggesting a range between 25 ¼ and 25 ½ at the back? What is the advantage of having the back much or any higher than the front?

Thanx.

Default If you set the front at 25.25", I'd go 25.5" for the rear...

...the rake will help the rear rotate more. I would not go over 25.75" in the rear. So that's what I mean by Rear Ride Height + 1/4" to 1/2" from front.
