On my buddy's car, I got very little bump-steer having the tie rod inners mounted on top of the pivot arm, and outers on the bottoms of the steering knuckles. I see you've mounted your tie rod inners beneath the pivot arm. Try it both ways and keep it whichever way has less bump-steer.
All that polished aluminum is pretty...gonna be a real Blingalo.
Thank you!
It's like you says abaout the "rhino touch" . Box art does not have this part or the hole to receive it...
The bump-steer will be a minor détail, because, it will be a shelf queen
