It's a set up!

Toad has adjustable spring seats & dampers. With the Spyder rear end it also has adjustable camber and, now, toe in. That should give me plenty to ruin.
Plan of attack - all the pivot point bolts are loose - front and back.
1. Load it up with half a tank of fuel and about 300 lbs on the front seats. All dampers set at "1".
2. Give it a good bouncing and set all the ride heights. Screw the spring seat down, spring preload drops as does the ride height? Tighten the suspension bolts.
3. Set the rear camber.
4. Set the rear toe in.
That sound about right?
If it is of any interest I made a simple 4mm ply shield to protect the wheels from hammer strikes.
It works well.
