camber link height? Not changing the angle of the top link, but changing the distance from the lower arm to the top link. eg, to increase the link height - space the link 1mm higher both ends, so its at the same angle, just relatively higher to the chassis / lower arm. Does this have an effect on setup? cornering / camber gain? |

Hey, if I understand you correctly, by moving the linkage higher but keeping same angle, car would roll more which means more traction and better cornering speed. Little less in corner steering |

Thanks, perfect ![]() Ide guess then that lengthening the link on the inside of the chassis (using the L1 L2 mounts) also has a similar effect as it is moving the instant centre further away from the chassis / C.O.G |

yes, better cornering speed and car is easier to drive because is more stable |
