It may sound technical in using terms but most like me just try to simply by put things where they have to be to get the job done! It is nice to know all the terms and have all the tools related and try to understand why it has to be a curtain way to make both wheels stay in time with the chassis as it moves! Some wish to lean to the right and nose hard to the right and in doing so have issues in getting it correct to their set-up as the left rear hikes and twist the frame over even more as the left ft. wheel goes in the air! Are they trying to get the weight to roll easier, hold left rear pounds better, transfer more to the right rear or just wanting more steer, or just wanting more left rear bar angle or movement! I use none of these with the chassis leaned left and only rolling to a level position to the track angle! Never had too many front end problems unless it was bent! I do run extreme caster to an advantage in keeping the frame twist and roll under control! We start out with percentage settings of left side, left rear, and cross to make it all work by our front end settings! You can hammer more in or ease a bit out with some ft. end geometry but I prefer the frame twist by extreme caster to keep my settings in tact and react by the steering wheel for better control of my settings and needs in the turn with minimal invasion of my bump steer static settings! No nightmares here ft. or rear but everyone says it looks and handles like a dream! Works with stock mounts and parts front and rear to steer both at the same time by just a turn of the steering wheel! My geometry ranges a bit farther than just where it wants to go as to where do you want it to stay if in control of the tracks forces!!! It has worked for us as a winning option in not following the crowd in leaning right ,nosing hard, hiking the left front or rear in keeping bump steer and pounds in check at each wheel! Meeting the challenge of roll head on with frame movement keeps it all leveled out and the pounds at each wheel correct as needed by the front-end settings to give the driver more control even when rolled what little it does! A lot of issues arise --only--- if you choose to do other things that cause them! Front end adjustments can solve lots of handling issues ft. or rear when corrected!
