    well less bump steer is always better!!! haha

    very easy way to find out is to measure toe at full droop and measure it at full compression or almost, and if toe changes at all, there is bump steer.

    I would say it will take an engineering marvel to ensure absolutely zero bumpsteer

    maybe because theres less bumpsteer, the steering wheel has less little jerks here and there when going over those fucking annoying infinite ridges in the dunes and sand? :notsure:
