i installed a 4 inch suspension lift yesterday and every thing is good but my stearing wheel is basicly a half turn to the right i reset the tow but i think i need to lengthen the drag link best i can tell i just need to put the front wheels straight disconect the drag link and then put the stearing wheel streight and get the diffrence added to the drag link does this sound right ?
 
I would think you could move a 1/2 turn just with the drag link adjustment. It does not take much.

ok i wasnt sure if that was acceptable but i will try thanks
Just don't get carried away but I think you will have to turn the clamp 3 or 4 turns to get back to center. If you end up with more thread out than in you may want to re think the problem but I don't think you will.:cool:

You can adjust it out, but you'll still have bump steer until you get a drop pitman arm or change to crossover steering.;)
