that is the problem. after i put them on i took it to the only alighment shop open after 5 pm today (big o tires) the car was too low to get on there alighment rack, but i had there alighment guy look at it.

he told me the inner tie rods were too long and the combo of my megan inner and megan tie rod ends were way too long. he moved them in as far as they will go and still i have super bad toe, too much to drive the car.

here is what i have

Don't trip.

Just cut the inners down.

Done.

I've done it many times.

Nothing new.

[driftage240]

Do you still have the supermade headlight buckets? Tried PMing you, but I didn't get a response.

[fbiphil]

had to cut about 3/4" off each inner to get the adjustment right- no big deal. Put the Jamb nut onto the end first, so it will clean up the threads after cutting. Good luck!

Word, Mel and I BOTH have had to cut inner tie rods more than once...

Shit's gay, but you gotta do it if you wanna rock!

[newblood]

you should try going to another shop where they can get your car up on a rack and getting another opinion

Comes with the territory. Anything aside from OEM should be expected to need some hand fitting.

Uhh... wtf. Pm him again, if he's avoiding you then he's not going to respond to your comment.

Word up.

those megans are balls...... But since you already wasted your money did you also install the spacers? they are awesome for drifting but if you dont wanna cut the inners then take out the spacers, then use the outside adjuster on the outters to help with the toe. Also, are you finding that when you are adjusting them the outters are pointing out like <\>-----------</> instead of straight up and down like <l>--------------<l> do you get what i'm saying? if so then try and get them pointing straight up when you adjust that will give you a more accurate reading for toe.
