Freestyle with 1.8 k series geometry?

[nescafe37]

Anyone got any decent caster, Camber and toe settings for a freestyle with a 1.8 fitted? Basically looking for a good starting point.
Cheers

Which subframe is the 1.8 fitted to the MG or the Mini, if MG have you widened the track at the front to match the rear?

Is it on the road, I am only aware of 3 Freestyles with 1.8's fitted, 1 is a stretch Red & Silver, 1 is a Yellow & Black & the last is still owned by @Danny & that is Orange & Blue.

But a good starting point for any buggy is https://www.muddybuggies.com/forum/index.php?threads/freestyle-suspension-geometry.2702/

Welcome BTW.

We used the mgf rear subframe. Its on road use only. And no we have not widened the front track at all. Is it worth doing that? I suppose logically thinking about it that would make a lot of difference huh?

When I had mine, I used 25mm Spacer/PCD converters & ran MGF 15" alloys front & back, also did the front coilover conversion, used Justins setting from that post & it handled great.
