With both outer links I believe the goal is to remain as parallel as possible with the movement of the LCA. If you visually can see that is not the case, bump steer is a given.
That is achieved by both sides being mirror image, and same distance from and height of the control arms measured from the ball joints pivot center to the pivot point of the LCA, and at centered steering. the inside control arm pivot longitudinally in line with the inside LCA pivot point.
Make sense?
i agree with the above. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
bump steer is there in the stock suspension, like it or not.
it isn't too bad if factory alignment specs are used, but when you start to use useful specs out of the factory range [especially caster] bump steer shows up quickly.
the DC and MP chassis books show how to correct this, and if you have these books, read up on the procedures and fix your situation. it's relatively easy to do. [in my opinion]
if you don't have these books, or access to them, they are a worthwhile investment.[again, my opinion]
