Steering Bush - Sierra Uprights
Barkalarr - 5/4/14 at 07:53 AM

I've taken apart my front wishbones on the Indy to have them powder coated. I didn't notice the top steering bush had an offset in it. It's a Sierra upright. It hasn't got a grub-screw in it (yet) to prevent it from working loose.

When viewing from the top, which picture best describes the direction where the offset should be facing?

This picture is taken from the front of the car - it's the offside wheel.

From memory, the hole should face the front of the car so the upright leans back as much as possible.

Why that way? Want it make the turning angle very limited, the brake caliper will collide with the carrier arm
