Hey, so I need to install the Flip-it kit from topline. I recently lowered my car, and the tie rods are hitting the body on sharp turns/ bumpy roads. So, I get the part where I drill the tie rod hole, and insert the bushing. However, how do I actually FLIP the tie rod itself to insert it into the bushing upside down from the original location?
Thanks!

You dont actually flip anything, you well just tern the tie-rod end, and put it in from the bottom instead of from the top Very Happy You well probably need to adjust the alignment when dun..
