Hi All,

I have a precistand problem in Pantera, that may have to do with caster. Or not enough caster.
My Pantera is full trackday car, it doesn't see the roads. When I brake real hard, my steering wheel starts to rumble, shimmy or how you call it. It can be stopped if grap the wheel with two hands. I alway's thought that it was in the rack, or the mounting brackets. So I checked them both, and got it working as it supposed to do. I checked the brakes, put on new rotors, no succes.

Could it be that the problem is not enough caster ? If you brake hard, the car will dive a bid, and the relative caster will become almost zero. The hub will be approx in a vertical line with the ground. Could this create this agrassive shaking in the steering under braking ??
