Help - Rear Suspension Adjustment

[Anthony]

Just an FYI,

I was talking to SAI the other day, about getting some wrenches to adjust my settings. They told me that I should leave the setting on the rose joint, the inner joint on the lower control arm where it was, and not to adjust it. They said that to adjust the toe, you adjust the drag link length.

By looking at the suspension, it looks to me that it is the combination of the rose joint setting and the drag link length that determines the caster and toe in settings. I don't know how they (SAI) set up the rose joint setting, detemine what it needs to be. I haven't seen anybody talk about a caster setting for the rear yet. Does the setting realy matter? I would guess if it was really "out" it may put additional stress on the suspension parts?

Anthony,

I called the Kirkhams and they told me to adjust the toe with the drag link. I had an alignment shop do it. Only time will tell if it cured the problem. I had them also adjust the front suspension as well.

Have fun, Ray
