      A couple more pieces of info .I'd like to see...
      1. Caster setting
      2. A general picture of the front suspension so I can see that the components are assembled appropriately. (Humor me...I've seen some strange stuff over the years )



      when I return to the office tomorrow I'll dig up the bumpsteer graph that we observed and try to post it here.

      cheers!

      Hey Bret
      I'm at work now, Monday morning here in NZ, will take images tonight.
      No this system doesn't magnify results at all. Yes it will change overall widths, but the toe angles stay constant.
      If It is 2 degs. at the rotor face, then its 2 degs further forward.
      The two pieces of tape you can see indicate the diameter of the tire. Other wise my ride height toe angle would be off, which it isn't.
      This jig allows you to get very accurate measurements when suspension is fully compressed as the chassis isn't in the way.
