Bumpsteer Help
 
I all, need a lil help on that one.

Any have a picture of his steering rack with the tie rod angle. I don't want to have bumpsteer problem with my car next summer.

I'm running Apexi N1 coil over i will upgrade my sway bar with a BMW one. And i also install the Mazdaspeed outer tie rod.

Hope some body can help me with that question.

It's more a street car. Maby i will race it once a year.

Sorry for the late reply....

Have you looked into '93LE or "R" package end links? They have helped a few "slammed" Miata over at CR reduce (not eleviate) bump steer. I may go that route at some point as my front K-frame is lowered.

That what i bought.

Did you have a picture of your steering rack?

Thanks again!

Mine's not too bad but you can feel a bit of bumpsteer on truck ruts.

My K-frame is lowered 3/8ths and the car sits at about 5.5" front/5.75" rear at the seam welds.

The 225 tires may have something to do with the bumpsteer as well.

V8R has a new set up bump steer correcting outer tie rods.
