    Whoaaa! Another Revive right here! 2019/2020, Ackerman is perfectly fine is you're on the street, having stock ackerman angles won't affect you at all it will help you in the parking lot, what is going to suck though is having you steering over throw the center point on the tie rods and bind or kinda lock up! Ackerman as in 0 ackerman will only come into effect while you're sliding or at high speeds, you'll get better feel and more front end grip sideways. I run as much castor as I can for self steer, assuming you have clearance on for your tires and front bumper, Try to have no more that 3° of camber at front and zero it out in the rear, My E36 always has some toe in the rear try as i might and I've notched out the RTAB brackets, but if your car isn't ultra low you wont have this effect. As for front Toe, it all depend on how squirmy you want it to feel, too much toe out and you'll be all over the shop, but a little is of great help, especially for self steer sensitivity. all this is just IMO

    I'm going to a demo event that I don't have to organize for a change so I'll have some opportunities to make adjustments and report back. I'll update this after the event and professional alignment this weekend.
