The stuff that rolls out of your shop is always badass.

Nice car! And what does having that tie rod that conects to both wheels do for you? |
Its for the Air ride set-up, when adjusting the ride height the tires always stay straight for your toe-in toe-out, with having a short tie rod arm and a long tie rod arm and adjusting the ride height you will get toe-in and toe-out at all different heights. my way always stays in line with no excess tire wear. |
I like the idea of keeping the same TI/TO for the different heights.
Does that make for more steering effort? Is that something you thought of/fabricated yourself? Or is that something that's done for all air ride front ends? |
Its been done since the 20's and earlier. just works real well with the air-ride set-up though.
