| Do you plan on keeping your factory rack and pinion? It appears that you guys just raised the upper mounts straight up, if you keep your factory rack or don't somehow shorten it or shorten the lower control arm you are doomed to get bump steer. It might not be terrible, but just a warning so you guys can look into it | |
