Default Re: ProtoDie 2 seat mini buggy- next build

Just a bit more

Front is designed with 20" travel and 70" wide outside of the tires.

Fox 2.0 air shox 10" stroke

I am using the Rage end load steering rack & pinion from Dan's performance, (a real nice unit)

These Rack & Pinion measures 15-1/4" to 16-1/4" from eye to eye and weighs approx. 8 lbs.. The pinion will travel 3/4 of a turn from center to lock. The rack will travel 2" from center to lock. Designed for front steer spindles. Distance between mounting holes is 6". Has 5/8" x 36 spline input pinion shaft.

Ride height is designed with shock compressed 32%
Camber change from ride height to droop is .5 degrees and zero bump steer.

Ride height to full compression is 68% and tires toe out less than 1/8" at full compression.
Camber change is 3.8 degrees from ride height to full comp.
