eddy,
I remember somewhere in your posts regarding the sleeves (could have been on another site) that you also mentioned a mod you had in the pipeline for the steering arm angles. I think you'd mentioned that you thought the rack was too low. Looking at mine (which is stock height) my steering arms are angled up a few degrees at the tie rod ends so I'd have to agree. It'd only get worse with lowering.
What did you do to improve things? - pack out the rack to raise it or swap in taller tie rod ends??
