caster? and camber?

[recomp]

Hi.

I am having soem questions on the caster and camber setting of A-arms. I think it is called "CASTER AND CAMBER" if it is not called that then it is the setting angle of the top to the bottom of the front tire. Also the setting angle from front to back of the arms.

 

Does any one know the angles for mx racing?

 

 

Thanks

George

check out lonestars website they have the angles for each style of riding. Good luck with adjusting the arms, it can be a bitch. Mine arent exactly perfect but they're good enough. All you need is the staight side, frome a ruler and an angle finder. You can pick that up at a home depot or somethin.

I agree with both of them. Lonestar's website will give you a good staring point on numbers, but they aren't exactly right for all tracks and all people. An angle finder and a straight edge are cheap and it's almost impossible to do this with out them.
