Thread: Tie rods

You can remove some of the down bend in the spindle steering arms OR get a tapered reamer to deepen the tie rod end mounting(which would RAISE the tie/drag link or even double taper the arm from the top side and place the tie/drag link on top of the arm------------

how much caster are you putting into the set up---looks leaned back in the gallery photo-------

For the benefit of the younguns on here who may not have ever done this, be aware that there are different tapers available in reamers, so be absolutely certain that the reamer you use matches the taper of the ballstud shank......this is suspension/steering you're messin' with here and your life hangs in the balance.
