[DeTomaso] Bumpsteer Explained

[Guido deTomaso]

True enough.  But if ( and only if ) the UCA and LCA are parallel to each other, isn't it going to be best in that case for the tie rod to be parallel to them?

Even then it's not a certain success. If the lengths of the control arms and the tie rod aren't exactly correct in relation to each other you can have as much bumpsteer as ever before. Tomas

If nothing else, this ought to lay to rest the notion that putting the tie rod parallel to the ground is always a good idea.  That would only apply if both the upper and lower control arms were also parallel to the ground.

  explains it quite well.
