 Re: GTM Libra suspension set up
You need to start by setting the inboard ball joints to 39mm from the threaded tube to the centre of the ball joint.
Then depending on what gearbox you have, measure from the gearbox [where the driveshaft enters the gearbox] to the centre of the first bolt on the bottom ball joint.
PG1 Gearbox [1800 VVC] 343mm nearside, 625mm offside. R65 Gearbox [1400] 375mm '' 560mm ''
You can then set the camber and toe-in to what you prefer.
I run 2mm combined toe-in on the front [I tried toe-out,didn't like it, and I haven't got anti-roll bars], -1.5 camber and 4mm combined toe-in rear. Tyre pressure 17psi front, 21 rear [and I'm going to try going lower].
I've got a set of gauge's and slide plate's, so I'm always playing with settings.
Good luck, have fun setting up.
