Hey man, compliments on a sweet quad. I recently entered my Z in a drag race at a local fair. When I lowered it with ratchet straps, the toe-in became excessively negative, toed in a lot. My question is this, with your Timmy Boy Designs A-arms and your TSC( I think) shocks, when you bottom the quad out or lower it down, do you have a problem with excessive toe-in?? Is there any way to lose the toe-in when lowered or during extreme supension compression? Is my answer upgraded and wider a-arms? Your help or anyone elses would be great.

I never noticed a problem with toe, but this could be because my arms increase the width, lowering the stance. Also, my TCS Zero-preload shocks lower it a little more. Between the 2 of these, my tie rods are not at as much of an angle and it was aligned at this position. I will admit that I don't know a lot about a-arms and alignment, But call Timmy Boy, or any other reputable a-arm maker and they could probably help you out a little better.
