With moving the hub forwards or backwards to counter the wheelbase change produced by adjusting the axle trail, there is another add-on effect, and this is that the ackerman is being changed too because the steering arm ball stud position is being moved in relation to the bellcrank ball stud position.
Seems to me therefore that you have 2 options when adjusting the axle trail - move the hub and therefore also change the ackermann slightly, or leave the hub and change the wheelbase / weight balance slightly.
Thoughts on this?
