Toe-in curve
Notes:
Explanation of the term "toe-in curve":
-
When the suspension is compressed (bumped) or extended (rebounded) the toe of the wheel changes relative to the amount of compression or
extension. The resulting toe values can be plotted on a graph to obtain the toe-in curve.
-
The shape of this curve is determined by toe value C1 (measured with the wheel in a defined starting position B1) and by toe value C2 measured at
a rebound, or extension, of 40 mm or 1.57 inch (for heavy duty suspension 1BB) or of 60 mm or 2.36 inch (for all other suspensions) relative to
starting position B1).
-
The resulting change in toe-in, (C2 - C1) is defined as "toe constant S."
