Default Scrub Radius and SAI/Caster/Camber Calculators

Hi all,

Maybe this has already been done by others.

But Ron's Suspension Theory threads got me thinking so I went ahead and developed my own calculators for scrub radius as well as the relationships between SAI, caster and camber as the front wheels are turned. A couple of screen shots shown here:





I've tested both programs, especially the latter, at various limits and for cases where the answer is obvious, in order to verify they work. If anyone is interested PM me and I can email the Excel file to you. I know there are very good canned programs that do this, but I wanted to try it for myself so I could really understand how it works.
