Re: bump steer

Before I go any further, I am not a suspension expert, just sharing ideas for discussion.

Sure Chris, Gary, I hear what you are saying & the laser idea doesn't take any geo into account, it is simply a way of plotting the movement of a particular part of the suspension.

I guess you could use the same method to plot the arc of the outer ends of the top & bottom wishbones & compare this to the arc taken off the hub. In an ideal world (ie minimal bump-steer) the arc taken off the hub would be somewhere inbetween the two arc taken off the balljoints.

WDYT??
