An interesting comment for you: I had a chevy pick up that didn't drive right , bounced around curves. A friends older brother was an old school mech. and front end man.
He heated and bent both arms and cooled them in a special way to lower the tierod, it didn't ever give me trouble , didn`t weaken them,and drove better than the factory set up did ----------------food for thot .
My 2' TTI`s called for 1 3/8" offset on the engine .
