I will check pinion angle here in a coupla weeks.
The car with Hotchkis leafs has DSE coilover conversion, ATS spindles, Konis, and DSE A-arms. Tires are 255/45-18 Toyos

Thanks Steve(again!!) for real life data
One more dump question. Is there any reason to control side to side movement with leafs ? I know panhard pan may not be the best one for leafs.
