I would be curious to see if the droppped spindle corrects the need to flip the outter tie rod. If I remember correctly everything is pretty flat on my steering. No weird angles on the tie rods. Is there a "correct" angle? I've installed all the new steering components already. Now that you mention this, I have to go look. These all seem like straight forward mods. Thank you.
