Grrr...more problems...terminal steering wheel missalignment
More problem with my new BMR k-member and A-arms...
The passanger side tie rod is bottomed out and so i cant straigten out the wheel...it simply is bottomed out.
All i need it like a 1/2 turn to the left. theres plent of adjustment on the other side.
any tips?? do they make shorter tie rods? or can i pull the steering wheelk off and put it on slightly turned? or does it only go on one way? i already tried to see if i could get a 1/2 turn out of the linkag in the colum but i cant.
sorry so many question but there no way i can drive it with the steering turned like that...

Better idea is to find out what is wrong with the alignment. Not a good idea to move the steering wheel. The steering shaft needs to be centered when the wheels are straight ahead.

Well i alway seem to get the black sheep mismanufacture parts 
i bought this and install at the same time as my friend and he had no problems, i had tons. I think that BMR didn't get the mounts for the PS rack in the right place...so its shifter to one side a lil... not sure tho
