upper control arms (pinion angle)

bigmike83 · January 3rd, 2007, 10:13 AM

hey guys just put set of upper and lower upr control arm on my 97 mustang gt, it has solid lowers and adjustable uppers. what should i put my pinion angle at. i'v heard many different ones. wich is the best, the car sees the track but it also gets driven on the street alot and raced on the street some too. so its a daily driver(nothing to drastic) they are set just like the factorys now. going to get a angle finder in morning and going to set it in the afternoon just need some angles to set it at. thanks a million

What type of control arm bushings do you have? Rubber, urethane or solid?

Type of bushings makes a huge difference with pinion angle. Negative 3 to 4 degrees that you set it at is perfect.

I have a 94gt that i just got steeda ajustable uppers for, they have their 3pc urethane set up, car has been lowered w/ their sport springs, daily driver/street racer/ corner carver, what would be a good idea for the angle with this set up?
