Hi Fritz, been a subscriber for some time now due to owning a M140i,I do enjoy your content so keep up the good work mate. Just thought I better get in there first before you get any criticism/abuse. @ 2:01 in the video regarding camber you use the word “towing” to pull the bottom of the wheels back in and thus the top of wheels out=positive camber. I think the word ‘pulling’ might be more appropriate just in case viewers get confused between camber and toe. Also you are correct in regard to caster with the wheel-well analogy without any other modifications,but what if I somehow moved my steering rack forward aswell? (Christ I’m nitpicking here bud but for the sake of others). The easiest and quickest explanation on RU-vid for this is Jason back in the day- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Gh7gWJAvOvs.html Christ I’ve turned into a critic 🤦
Hey I'm not perfect and could always improve so thanks for the input. I didn't even realize or intentionally use the word "tow" but I should have caught that. In regards to your second statement, I should have used the steering rack as the point of reference. That guy is amazing! His explanation is much more datailed, Physics was my weakest science back in college lol. Thanks for correcting and clarifying.
@@FritzRamos no ones perfect mate,least of all me. As I said I enjoy and appreciate your channel,I ment no offense. Yep Engineering Explained has taught me So much,a very clever fella. All the best 👍
how did you figure out how much to adjust the length of these adjustable SPL control arms? did you have to take it to an alignment shop and adjust the arms there?
Correct, the shop was the one that did the alignment. If you install it yourself, you just need to get it as close to stock length until you bring it in.
@@FritzRamos yes Nixon is about 2 blocks away and comes with good recommendations. They gave me a recommendation for paint repair for damage that was on the car when I bought it. Expensive. Some small scratches on the passenger side back wheel surround will end up costing me 1000!
