    Pin Drive Width Front Setups?

    For those of you who are running pin-drive fronts, I'm attempting to zero in on the best setup for a base setting of near zero bump-steer on a MKI. Tire size is somewhat irreverent but.. I had been running a FR rack with an inch of extensions total side to side. (half inch each side) this placed the inside tie rod pivot well inside the upper and lower CA pivot plane. It was acceptable but still some bump-steer. SAI Mod helped tremendously. I just installed a new Unisteer 3.7 with 1" extenders per side which brings the inner pivot more inline (outward) with inside upper and lower CA points and bump-steer is worse. Trying to get a conscious on best starting point if you have the details. Looking for detail and your overall impression of bump steer with your setup:

    MK1,2,3: ?
    Ride height: ?
    Spindle type: ?
    SAI Mod ?
    Caster: ?
    Rack type: ?
    Rod End type: ?
    Extenders: ?
    Rod end orientation top/bottom: ?
