Improving handling
#26
Hi Paul , yes it sounds like your caster angle is out and that will have a dramatic effect on your handling, so much so that any irregularity in the road will feel as if you are about to fly over the nearest hedge.

As Bob pointed out, twisting the radius arms will alter the caster angle, therefore you need to set the ca4 up flat and level and maybe using the inclinometer mentioned earlier get the axle tilted backwards and those kingpins aligned to about 9 degrees I think it is and the handling will be transformed.
