Front geometry?
Hi, can you guys advise me on a good basic front set up. I've only set mine up by eye and using spirit levels at the moment but im going to get
it done properly but not sure what to ask for? I was thinking 1 degree toe in and 1 degree possitive camber? I suppose you should know its got a big
old pinto in the front which im sure makes a difference.
Cheers,
Steve

I run about 2.5deg neg camber (top of wheel further in that bottom) and 0.3deg toe in at the front.
These are the same setting used by caterham, and they seem to suit my car too.
Feedback and self centering are excellent.

This is what was written in the luego build manual.
Tracking - (0.5 – 1mm toe-in) with equal O/S & N/S track rod lengths
Camber angle, front & rear - (1 – 1.5 degrees lean in??)
Castor angles (upright)
Spring compression and damping rates??
ALL of which will all need to be professionally set before road use.

Mine has got also the pinto engine and the set up is on this moment : Camber 1 degree negative, castor 5,5 to 6 degree. Tracking between 0 to 3 mm toe
in. With the sierra uprights.
