Hi all I have a power steering rack that I ordered as an option to my basic kit. I also have the pin drive control arms. The manual states the preliminary measurement for the tie rod ends is 53 1/16” when I straighten the wheels and measure the distance from the spindle holes I get an approximate measurement of 50 1/2”. Do I need to trim some of the thread off? Manual says nothing of this discrepancy. Also the right hand tie rod end connects to the spindle from the bottom but the left only goes in from the top. Do I have two right hand spindle steering arms? Assistance is needed to correct these issues please. Thanks in advance

thats because your using pin drive control arms. As long as you can get he wheels to point straight and no run out of thread you should be fine. Yes sounds like you received 2 right arms. Just happened to me too.
