"clocking" c-hubs to improve steering?

[Soulo747]

I noticed my wraith was "steering into the ground" (scrub steer?) so I rotated my c-hubs back a few degrees on the axle splines.

Is this ok?

Whatever works for you is fine. I don't think there is a law about that adjustment. It is there for a reason and if you want you are able to change it. I can't with my setup because the steering would rub on my rims if I clocked mine back. The drag link rod ends are just a hair to thick but it still works without rim dremeling so far...hehehe. Joys of custom setups, eh?

Indeed.

Yeah kinda throws the tie rod and steering link at a weird angle, but attaching both beneath the Ackerman arm does the job.

100% improvement on under-load steering!!!!

I agree with those above. Just a note though, that's not scrub steer. Just an example of negative caster."thumbsup"
