Red_Zed your measurements were taken from ride height to fully compressed right? So if it has less change from unloaded to rest and the change from rest to fully compressed is pretty minimal (~1/32 difference) would this kill the bump steer idea? I know it's still there on paper, but can the average person feel the difference of 1/32? I've gone over a few sharp bumps in corners at interstate speeds (one freeway interchange ramp really got my attention the first time i hit it) and i just assumed that it is the tires getting a bit light, not bumpsteer. My thinking was that with the bumps I've encounterd the backend hits the bump and as the back end rises a bit the rear wheels get unweighted just a little bit and it causes the lose feeling. I'm not a suspension expert though so I could be a bit or way off. Forgot to mention that i realize it isn't a linear change. But i was thinking that if it gains more toe under compression that under droop it would lose toe. Where are these bump steer gauges that you speak of? I would love to get a set to play with if they aren't too expensive.
