In measurements on my car, On the Tiger, the turning radius were
reversed, i.e. the inside wheel had a larger turning radius (26 degrees
& 5 minutes), that the outside wheel (30 degrees & 15 minutes), at full
lock.
From actual measurements, I put the front tires on a turntable, to
check the final ackerman angle. Dales kit puts the ackerman angle at a
neutral angle, and not the wrong ackerman angle that the stock Tiger
suffer from. A gain of 3 degrees, in the right direction.
