Just so I can understand. If scrub radius is the turning paths of the steering
wheels, can there be scrub with only one? I thought scrub was the tires
fighting each others rolling path.

Skip,B I know how you feel it's a hard old habit! On your inline liner It
certainly won't diagonalize. Once I drove 788 with only one (spindle
supported) wheel on the ground, it steered fine. 3deg caster,B 1' scrub,
aprox.
