Well I have had my Steering setup for a little over a month now, and i must say that I love it! i know alot of people hate the inverted T setup but compared to stock, mine handles great. Now i have been going through some issues with my steering wheel being upside down, and so tonight i tackled that and twisted the draglink till the wheel was centered. ok cool, so now here is my problem. Look below.
The problem is, when i went to untighten the adjusting nuts on the tie rod side (arrow in red) of the draglink, some how when i went to go tighten everything back up is hitting the adjusting nut on the tie rod (the yellow arrow). I can turn the adjusting nut on the draglink very little and its only the very tip of it that comes in contact with the other adjusting nut on the tie rod. Now I know that i can simply pull the draglink off the tie rod and adjust it up but i DO NOT have a pickle fork or a tie rod end puller and was wondering..is there any ofther way that i can create enough room between the drag link and tie rod so that i can twist the adjusting nut up away from the other adjusting nut on the tie rod so that i can finish the job?>
