Need pics and info: Bump steer mod
« on: October 08, 2013, 08:46:30 pm »
So I did the "flip steering horns over and swap sides" before but it SERIOUSLY maxed out my tie rod ends and locked them up so I don't know if I did it right...... I'm putting these 500 arms on and want to do this along with the camber mod (already have some spacers thanks to Chevyvettezr10!!!!!!!!!!! ) but I wanna make sure I do this RIGHT. The only pic I seen of the bump steer mod so far is one pic of MoonPie's 500 with a flat plate that looks nothing like a 250 steering horn......

Thanks y'all  D?  <-- rounds on me

I need to do it on the hybrid, If I get off work before dark i'll learn you chuckie  >:D The pics were from the zilla, completely different swap on the 250. You basically swap sides, so instead of the arm up it's down. It allows the tie rods to run more parallel with the a arms angle's decreasing bump steer.
If brains were gasoline, you couldn't power a **** ant's go-cart 2 laps around a cheerio.

All you do is swap sides. from kinked up to kinked down.

you put the right on the left and left on right
life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sidays totally worn out shouting "HOLY SH*T...WHAT A RIDE!"
