those that have builded a frontend?????

I am between hot rods right now and the past was all B-body (no need to
modify the front end on those).

My next one is probably going to be a Hemi A-body and I think that I would
defer to HemiDenny on that subject as I have been watching his posts for
the last year or so and got to inspect his new ride last month at the Nat's.
He does it right and here is what I have learned.

Suffice it to say that to eliminate bumpsteer, you have to have the length and
angle of the tie rods and lower control arms as close to identical as possible.

The other important parameter is ackerman (you know how when observing a
car making a very tight turn, the inside wheel has a much more severe angle
than the outside wheel?). If you were to just flip the stock spindles side to side
to make it a front steer the ackerman would be the opposite of what is desired
and the car would be virtually undriveable.

To get the ackerman right, draw a straight imaginary line from the pinion nut on
the rearend through the spindle pivot and out in front of the spindle. Anywhere on
that line is where the outer tie-rod end should be.

This why it is so important to have a design that locates the steering rack in the
optimum location. If you (or your builder) follows these fundemental priciples you
will have a great steering and handling car.
