TT lower arms and geometry changes

The issue I do have is the WALK combined with the TT arms has given me too much caster and the wheels are much closer to the front of the arch than the rear. I have modded the WALK and managed to pull the subframe back slightly, but I may go back to the standard consoles with some superpro bushes.
What caster are you two running? Mine is around 9degs 15 mins. I would like it to be around 8degs 15mins.

Alex, what's wrong with more caster? I'd like to have even more !!

Can someone tell me, if the S3 hubs and wishbones make the track wider??? I seem to be getting some banging from the front when I turn the wheels but it doesn't happen every time? I think the driveshafts outer joints are not seating properly? so when they are turned they are coming apart then going back in when straightened up.
I have checked every thing for loose bolts and cannot find anything :sad1: I usually look at the drop link has they are the most common to make noises.

I'd wonder if the track is wider with the S3 hubs.
I've fitted them for a week and couldn't see anything different.

I doubt it. if you had trouble with the driveshafts i wouldn't be able to drive with the TT arms :scared:

I guess with the TT arms it would be better not to adjust the camber to max.
About - 2° should not be any problem as so many guys have it this way without any issues.
:wink:
