Hmm, I've assumed the opposite because back in my karting days, we used to put an Ackerman Link in if we wanted to put more lock on the inside wheel relative to the outside, so I've assumed the same here!?
I think the problem might be (I too am thinking out loud and may be wrong mate) that the steering links are too straight when dead ahead, so as you put lock in the outer wheel lock is counteracted by the steering link moving backwards and further away from the spindle and therefore decreasing the lock if that makes sense?? So a spacer to put the centre ballstud in front of the spindle end when dead ahead would mean the change in link position as you put lock on would increase the relative lock per degree on the servo (on the outside wheel, opposite effect on the inside). Does that make any sense???
Does anyone know what the other effects of using spacers on those ballstuds would be?
