My track roadster has bias plies, a tube axle, 4 bars, panhard bar and Vega cross steer.

I've got the toe-in set at 1/8" and it seems just a little inattentive at 55-60 on two lane black top. So-Cal's little blurb on early Ford axles suggests 3/16" with bias plies. Easy to change but.....

What's your experience and settings?

I use 1/8" normally, but have used more when needed. If you have a lot of caster, more may be needed. I have even used a bit of toe out on cars that were a problem.
Welcome to hell. Here's your accordion.

Thanks guys. I set it up with 7 degrees of caster when I assembled the car. I'll try another 1/16th per side and see where that goes.
