Hey NICO
i wanted to get some others opinions on this matter
ive ran into overcentering in the past with stock tie rod set ups and a aftermarket FLCA but i have not run into any issues on my modified knuckles on stock FLCA's
however ive been looking into my steering for awhile no and i want to discuss an idea with you all and maybe somebody can chime in and say yes or no for the rational
unrestricted by a stopper lets say the overcentering seems to begin at the maxing out of the rack, so the trailing wheel no longer has any input and the lead wheel is free to overcenter by itself, however, if it DIDN"T max out at the rack would it still bind?
i ordered some ETS inner tie rod spacers so i can safely run my tie rods and modified knuckles, and they give an extra 18mm of rack travel (but do not offset the mounting point like DW or PSM stuff ive seen)
in HOPING that when i gain the rack travel i wont get the bind at overcenter and this is why...
currently when the rack is maxed out the overcenter occurs on an arch, making the distance at the knuckle closer to the rack the more it overcenters, so if that distance was made up by increased rack travel by the extra 18mm, it would seem like it wouldn't bind, at least not as much as it would maxing out and allowed to pivot on its own
i could be completely wrong but it seemed to make sense looking at it, im still waiting on the spacers and i couldn't find many tech. info on people running them so i thought id post, im positive that i will need to weld in a new stopper at the start of the bind but im trying to utilize the extra rack travel that im getting
technical people hit me up!
