I plan on slotting my front strut assembly mounting holes to get more
negative camber and positive caster into my front suspension. But, I'd like
to know what's the best combination for autox.
Car: 95 Probe GT (FWD, 65/35 f/r weight dist), current front alignment
(guess based on oem) is camber -0.80 and caster +30.
I'm thinking about slotting the holes at about a 20-300 angle (in relation
to a line drawn from one strut to the other) so that I'll get about twice as
much negative camber as positive caster. I don't know how much
adjustability I'll have, but I'd like to get -1.50 camber on each front, and
caster I'm not sure. I can see how a really tight slow corner would benefit
from more positive caster, whereas a fast, open course would benefit from
more negative camber.
I guess I'll have to experiment and look at tire wear after I do some runs.
But any advice will be greatly accepted.
I plan on using my Dremel tool with a tungsten carbide cutting bit to slot
the holes.
