| Quote: | | Raising the rear does change the alignment. The caster angle, to keep it simple is top of your king pin. Negitive is when the pin leans forward and positive is when the pin leans back. If your pin angle is to far ahead or negitive, you will not be able to take your eyes off the road. It will wander. so what I'm saying is when you raise the rear up you change a steering angle that should be corrected for better steering. |
AHHHHH! Sounds like decreasing trail on a motorcycle.
I think I'll have mine checked. Firestone does a free alignment check here. I'll see if it came out of spec by adding the leaf.
