Suspension setup Luego
timex - 11/11/07 at 11:11 PM

Just out of interest realy I was just wondering what other people with luego Velocity XTs have there suspension set up like?

Also does anybody know the best way of measuring the caster angle on Sierra uprights? E,G with basic equipment.

Our current set up is =


Tyre pressures (COLD PSI) F= 18 R= 18

Dampening rate (CLICKS) F= +11 R +11 out of a total of 22 clicks

Ride hight (MM) F= 94 R= 114

Caster (DEG) F= Around 7 deg, not realy sure. We set it with as much caster as possible with the mushrooms as so we could still just get our camber with the tob ball joint fully screwed into the top wishbone.

Camber (DEG) F= 1 R= 1

Toe in (MM) F= 2


Only drove the car once at an Elvington trackday so cant realy say it needs ajusting because it felt prety good. Just the driver that needs to ajust to the car . If anything it was just a tad tail happy and as much fun spining at 60mph is, we dont want to do that too often do we .

Yes, it sort of does. I think when it comes to SVA tho I will add a couple of PSI to the tyres which I think will hellp this.
