        I think IT is a few more, but dont have any messurment on them all, this info i have found before, when was looking for my Sierra, i got 2new steel arms for that, and they Are aprox 272. Escos abd 4x4 was abit longer out from my info, so guess its sounds correct. This numbers is tca alone without rose joint.

          Ive got WRC TCA installed at present and they measure just over 290mm, but the camber is at 2 degrees and this is with 4" clearance between the top of the wheel and wing. Takiing all the measurements to bring the camber back in and to lower the car to give a better ride height I need TCA at 270mm, and this will give the minimum camber, so I can then adjust the shorter TCA to get the desired camber at the correct ride height. I have now managed to sort out another set TCA's but I just wanted to check what lengths they came at first.

            2 degrees is not enough camber on an Escort rally car on the front.

              Will that be for gravel or tarmac, or is it the same for both.

                I think

                Gold was super widetrack tarmac.

                Red was early gravel, and blue was early tarmac....

                I dont have escos motorsport spec book, but have 3door and saph...

                  Thanks for that, I think based on that I must have wide track. l think my issue is the suspension i'm using as well.

                          Most of my set up is from MK motorsport using the up rights TCA's, uprights, compression struts and turret tops. the cross member is genuine tarmac. The suspension is from B.A.D. And this is where i think the issue is. I lowered the suspension today and found I could only get it so far. And this still gave me 4" clearance on the minimum setting at 2 degrees camber. looking at it further I am convinced the suspension is not right for this setup now.

                            Any pics? Messure your lenghts on suspension both Max out and Max down, IT should give you a idia if they Are wrong

                            Do you use extended turrets?

                            And what camber Are you after? 2deegree is not much, but yes should be more avilable to adjust

                              The turrets have been extended, I will go take some measurements and get the pics up later as well. Thanks for the help.
