Re: Steering/Alignment Help Please

Nothing to do with alignment, but some of the twitchy feeling ( according to a friend mine that techs go cart racing) is from the angle your tie rods end up after lowering. Depending on how much truck is lowered will effect it also. The tie rod ends up running almost level or at opposite angle it normally does. I’ve had one truck that was lowered 4” in front and drive like a dream and one that was 4.5” and never could get all the twitchy feeling out. Used same brand parts on both trucks. This is only a theory but made sense when he showed me. Probably why lots of folks don’t go crazy low on static drop anymore because of driveability factor. Again I’m no mechanic and only a theory.
