I am going to make tube axles for the next 2 projects so if you have knowledge to share about camber speak forth.
Thanks, oj

btw, unsprung weight in the front is minimal so any weight savings is a non-factor. Another point to onsider, Xmoly is a natural for the front axle as it is high quality steel and when bent it'll return to its natural shape. You bend mild steel and it'll stay that way. Something to consider, esp if you do a wheelie at launch.
Seems that something like 1/2 a degree of negative camber puts a bit of scuff on the tires and allows the toe in to be at about 1/16" and keeps some of that mid-track skatiness out of the car. I also like the caster at 5-7 degrees to keep things straight on the big end....
