Cal track adjustments
« on: September 25, 2007, 07:17:34 PM »

It's probably been asked before,but  anyone who has cal tracks set up can give me some hints on how to set them up.I think the right way is to have the drivers weight in the car.back off the 6 sided hex  until they are loose on both sides and the turn them 2sides only of the 6 sided hex.then tighten up the lock nut,I'm using the adjustable ranchero shocks that came with it,looking for a starting point for this set up?Any opinions on this? thanks-gene.

Thanks do you mean 1 turn meaning the whole hex or  one of the 6 sides of the hex.
