How much RF lower control arm pro dive is common? Seems to me that most cars getting the ground clearance with front strut cars have some sort of pro dive. How much is to much?

At least on some cars, the upper angle is changed too. On the rear strut, are they not on the same side view angle?Quote:

So maybe set it at 0* at like 3.5" or 4" of travel? Then adjust my upper control arm anti dive from that point? I just figured a reverse strut car would be easier to maintain 0* at static ride height. But I'm thinking some pro dive would be beneficial and I want my front front strut heim as far off the ground as possible without getting into to much trouble on geometry...Quote:

The ultimate goal is to run flat out all the way around without scrubbing speed and still be maneuverable through traffic.
Tune toward that neutral handling and have brakes to help you in maneuvering the car.
Always aim for the ultimate goal.
