I'm furiously reading Staniforth et al and have a specific question I can't find explained.
All the examples for unequal A frames I see, set the lower arm position as horizontal at neutral bump/droop when viewed from the front. I've search photos from F1 etc. and always see the lower arm level with the ground.
For a road car would this always be the best position, or are there instances of an inclined lower arm, at normal ride height, being a better compromise?
Thanks, Colin.
