[Tigers] Anderson Accurate Ackerman Angle kit

[Landcmitch at aol.com]

The Ackerman angle was corrected to: inside wheel 20 degrees, outside wheel  
17 degrees.  Turning circle 31+ feet.  One more consideration - this  system 
must be kept clean and lubricated, there are no rubber boots or  protective 
sleeves.  This is a "fair weather" mod.  But it sure  works!

Listers-

I got a copy of these instructions from Ramon (Thanks  Ramon!) just to 
see how this kit worked.  Pretty complex linkage  system.  So my question 
is, does anyone know anyone who actually  installed one of these and if 
so, how well did it work in terms of  correcting the Ackerman angle?

Just curious- Randy
