Re: steering shaft binding on upper a arm

When you section the crossmember, everything on the steering stays in the same location except the outer tierod, so you introduce a ton of bumpsteer. Flipping the tierod to the bottom eliminates most of this. I have mine set up like this and it steers very nicely.





thanks for the info
