What effects does the distance of the knuckle mounting points from the shock have on steering/geometry? I have been curious, since different coilovers place the knuckle at different distances.
In theory, would it not be ideal to mount the knuckle as close to the shock as possible, and tune the suspension from there? Or would it be best to have the axis of rotation of the shock aligned directly with the pivot point of the knuckle? Or is there nothing of significance to be gained/lost here?
