Re: Make it handle

Drop spindles (theoretically), have the steering arm positioned to keep the tie rod in the OE geometry. So, they should have appx the same bump curve as a stock truck. I would think that moving the tie rod end to the bottom of the steering arm (using stock steering components for the rest of the system) would produce much worse bump steer, as it would be way too much of a change. keeping the tie rod end 'level' is not really the goal. Having it match to the I.C. (instant center) is, and it may not 'look' right, even when it is.
