Al K I started off using the M2 spindle the draw backs became plan after we started tracking the cars. The outside bearing is to small and needs to be twice as big. And the angel of the arm makes the rack mounting a little low. A word to the wise from someone who has ben there. You can use all the info in the books from the best engineers on the planet, and your car may still not get around a corner to save its self. The trick is to build every thing adjustable, and spend some time at the track with a prow driver. After all the tweaks are done you can install tougher non adjustable parts. Remember the longer the arms the better. and make the rear end narrower than the front.
