Every thing works OK, rides ok, steering a little sensitive but I can get accustomed to that. The wheels turn sharper to the right then to the left. My rack mounts about 1" off center to the right, ( I am measuring from the ends of the rack at boot to the lower inner A arm pivot) my steering left & right is limited by the tie rods stopping in the rack. The mounting tabs are fixed,welded on the frame by TCI, I don't think they could have gone farther left because of the rack steering shaft and the new Mustang II frame , kind of sits tight to the left side with the u-joint going to steering column. Heidt's has good info on the geometry of the MII front end on their web site. My inner upper and inner lower a frame pivots are in line with the rack tie rod pivots as they should be. I could shorten & lengthen the tie rods to get symetrical turning left and right, but this would put the rack pivots out of line giving me bump steer. It is probably a normal install as the only way I can see getting symetrical is to center the rack outer housing tube and you can't. You can only tell the difference when trying to manouver in a tight spot that it turns more right then left. Zeke
