i have built my rear end from the avon back end dimentions and i have noticed that as the rear wheels rise i get possative camber (the top of the wheel moves outwards. i get possative and negative camber mixed up)
i have been told this will make the car loose traction when cornering and hitting bumps
as its a massive job to redo the whole backend again
has anyone finished there avon and what does it handle like
am i woring about nothing as usual
cheers dave

I set mine up, rightly or wrongly with slight negative camber where it sits.
As it corners the relative load should make the wishbones rise but only to a point of neutral camber.
I have only driven it around the block so I can't comment too much, but feels sure footed. I'll push it harder when the tank is fixed in. Didnt want petrol every where.
My weight distribution will be biased towards the rear though as have a bike engine.
I'll have to play with the front a bit as it doesn't self centre too well as yet.

i have read that to increase self centering steering you must increase the castor angle
thanks for the info
