This is the Wj set up with the xj steering on it. Is this catiwampus? Why won't this work ?

Thank you

 

Can't see that on my phone...

 

I am also on my phone but I cam see it... I'll explain it lol
It has the xj steering connected to only the top spot of the knuckle. Looks super flat however.

 

That picture looks freaky. I wouldn't personally ever run my steering like that. The knuckles aren't designed for that ether.

 

I agree now that I look at it a little closer.

Thanks for all the info probably gonna have more questions after

 

Either raise the axle side track or get a less drop pitman arm, they are close ish but I can see they aren't parallel

 

Looks about fine to me?

 

Ruler it or how ever but ya it's not parallel, probably is some bumpsteer just not super noticeable

 

thanks


thanks

 

I didn't post a picture because I have a problem.... I was showing Will how my setup is is and worth fine...

It is!

No bumpsteer... been like this almost two years and never a issue... been on the interstate at 80 many times also... no problem...

Web wheeling is one thing... if ya think it's gotta be down to the exact millimeter then ya probly read more then build... there's is lots of room to play there even though the Internet will make u think otherwise

 

Nope just OCD lol I bet you though there is small amount of bumpsteer, just not noticeable to you. Like I said earlier, it would be probably unnoticeable.
It's not about web wheeling or real wheeling, it's to do with physics. Can't argue your way out of that.

 

Show me how physics says they must be identical...

 

Because of the arc swing movement(not good at technical terms lol) being exactly parallel will allow for the suspension to cycle with no interference(bump steer) now if the length isn't the same or the bars are not parallel, there will be some interference, now as I said, you probably do have bump steer but because your links are fairly close to be parallel, you wouldn't even notice the bump steer because how small it is. Trying to find the calculator/input(like the suspension calc) that I saw and used years ago. Ill post it when I can

 

As the suspension cycles, both the track bar and drag link travel in An arch. If the angle/length of the two is different. It causes bumpsteer because the 2.try to follow different archs. And since the drag link us connected to a joint it causes the heel to steer.

first one is old school stuff but shows how different angle will cause different arcs

second is newer with showing both leaf and link suspension and saying and showing the same that if not parallel, the individual links will swing at different arcs and cause one side(the moving axle) to tilt(bumpsteer)
