    Restarting my SLC project in West Texas

    I have noticed that a few people have wrestled with the steering column/ seat/ pedal alignment issues. Just a point to ponder Many mass manufactured cars as well as a lot of the race cars I have been in do not line up as common sense would assume. You just adjust and don't even notice it. Take a...

    Restarting my SLC project in West Texas

    Hector for critical bolts you may want to look into Nordloc washers. I’ve been wrenching for 50 years and am genuinely impressed by how effective they are. One spot that was always a sore point on the Dirt late model I was crew chief for was the header bolts. These were the only things that...

    Front tire poke at zero toe and zero camber

    Back in 2009 I attended a World Class Driving 200mph Extreme challenge in Uvalde Texas. The event was at the Continental/General tire tire test track. If you Google earth Uvalde Texas you'll notice a large oval outside of town. It is an eight mile concrete oval surrounded by various other tire...

    Ken's SLC build thread

    I’m also at this point and was wondering about the cutouts. I’m going to make similar plates but because I have power openers the lower portions are cut out. In order to strengthen the door in that area I’m going to fiberglass the inner section filling the void and use that to bond the plates in...

    SLC Bump Steer Spacers

    Thanks Howard. I already have a string set up and a straight edge for under the car to square the set up. I purchased a digital angle meter that is very helpful. I was able to at least get the basic alignment close. I’ll spend this weekend fine tuning it. (At least when I’m not watching the...

    SLC Bump Steer Spacers

    Thanks Howard. I will check it this way. My question is about what size upper and lower spacers did you end up with. I am puzzled at the way the car was shipped with seemingly custom made spacers that when the rear tie rod was compared to the lower control arm angle was way off. Does the about...

    SLC Bump Steer Spacers

    I recently aligned my car including successfully setting the frt bump steer. Using a 1 inch steel spacer as I have read in some posts got me within .05 of a degree in the frt. The rear is a different story. My car does have the the double shear set up. The car came with a longer lower spacer and...
