ok so im setting up the steering in teh jeep(half s10 half toyota for the RHD) and should the tie rods be level at ride height? right now the inside tie rod is 1 in lower than the outer tie rod. im just curious how much that would affect bump steer

btw its an s10 frame w/ all s10 steering BUT toyota gear mounted on passenger side.

They should be parallel with your lower controls arms, which should be parallel with the ground.

No!

You guys are answering a geometricaly specific question with a generalized answer.

Give me your e-mail and I will send you a front suspension article, with pictures, that will explain how to "set up" tie-rods.
