Has anyone had experience in modifying the drag link to keep it level with the pitman arm to avoid the dreaded bump steer. When building the old F*** roadsters they used to heat the steering arm and bend it lower. Can I cut the draglink and rotate the end with the steering arm balljoint to a downward position and then install it on the top of the arm instead of the bottom of the steering arm? I hate to cut the draklink but if I have it Mig welded and pinned inside of a sleeve I guess it should be ok. What do you guys have to say?
