I'm trying to understand the proper relationship between the adjustable linkage (between box and lever) and the tie rods. assuming the front tires are aligned and the steering box is on center, i can compensate for too much left/right adjustment at the tie rods by adjusting the linkage between the box and the lever. Wheel and steering box will be on center, but this will cause issues & different behaviors when turning left vs right (correct?)
How do i assure that the tie rod lengths and lever positioning are as close to ideal as possible, and then adjust the linkage? Should i measure the length of a non adjustable linkage and force that length on the adjustable linkage? Then spin both tie rods to center the tires for alignment?
