Worth repeating. I've replaced old bulkhead mounted Wilwoods with bulkhead mounted AP's, and have never looked back. There is definitely a quality difference between MC brands. Though, you can't...
+1 increase front track width. You'd decrease weight transfer in the front relative to the rear. You'd probably cure the understeer.
Lots of anti-ackermann... I bet at high loads those tires...

I think Tilton sells something (77 series) that might be a direct swap. Taylor Race, Pegasus, and Tilton sell them.
EDIT: The shaft threads, overall length, and the spherical bearing are...
Very cool, thanks.
I would absolutely love to see the paper/study associated with this statement. Do you have a link/paper number?
Thanks
+3
What sizes are the LH and RH bearings?
Hey guys - Bumping to the top to see if anyone has one of these they'd be willing to part with.
Thanks
I would recommend doing as much as possible to not over-constrain the wheel hubs. In our fixture, only one corner is fully restrained, but not quite "ridgid." The Neil Roberts fixture in his Think...
The front has a Kingpin Axis in all 3 dimensions. Extend that axis to where it intersects the ground. The offset from that intersection to the center of the contact patch in the Y-Dir is the Scrub...
Reminds me of those micro machine cars...

What is the idea for requiring the cars to be open wheeled anyway?
It would be very interesting to see if we could arrive at a rules set that saw exciting competition between a lighter...

Could maybe even argue (and prove) that they served to help mitigate tire-to-tire contact and absorb energy...
Hey guys - Does anyone have a 02004141 kicking around in their shop that they don't need anymore? Need one for a project and TRE is out of stock.

A lot of cars that have a limit on overall width (most racing classes have these) are forced into a smaller track width in the rear, as a means to packaging wider tires.
If a team has time to test the Goodyear/Hoosiers back to back, they're likely going to utilize the performance increase of the GY tires.
If a team does not have time, there are two...
~2" on 2010, ~1" on 2011.
Need a lot of positive wheel offset and if you're still having issues, you can use Kingpin Angle to get it to 0" easily. However, I was able to get ~1" with only ~1deg...
