Default Bump Steer Kit

What's a good estimate of the spacer arrangement for the MM kit on a 3/4" lowered car? Alignment specs should be what MM recommends (caster=4.5°, camber=-.5°, and toe should be 1/16-1/8" toe in).

I have no idea. Wish I could help but I haven't looked into bumpsteer adjustment since I don't have a good way to measure it.

edit: thought you were talking about CC-plates.

The Tie Rod should be paralell with the A-Arm (in general) after all the spacers are on and the car is sitting at ride height.

+1...that is all i found out. i made my tie rods about even with the A-arms when the car is sitting on the ground with suspension loaded.
