I think i have read previously that when martin builds these he sets them up to the standard length.

The other thread has the alignment settings, the TCAs would require setting up with 4 wheel alignment equipment.

Best bet mate fit them and get it straight down to your local PROFESSIONAL (not kwik fit and alike) tyre fitters and have a set up done

wee tip of martin

Please note: The thin rosejoint spacer goes towards the rear of the TCA. They are set up to the standard length TCA on my jig. Please ensure you tighten the lock-nuts very tight 2 off 32mm spanners required! Ensure that the rosejoint sits in the vertical position, ie NOT cocked over!
