i checked the links with digital cailipers(inside the cups) and found that they almost 1mm off. i think the best soloution is to keep extra links and check them frequently. the first day i drove the car i had a couple of bad wrecks,so that is probably whats wrong.when i get home i am goin to look into how to check for rear steer with the car on a flat surface,no shock or tubes with just the axle in. i think i can take a measurement from the axle to the chassis stand offs. i am not sure exactly yet, i will have to sit down with the car and think about it. more to saisfy my own curiosity than anything
