Easy install, great results.

Easy installation, relocates the inner tie rod end pivot points to match the lower control arm pivot. The tie rod assembly and lower arm travel together. For best results we installed the rod adapter studs to the spindles. This allows enough adjustment for the outer tie rod end and lower ball joint pivot to be in line, maximizing the pairing of the assemblies during suspension travel. Bump steer significantly improved. Yes I would recommend to a friend, but definitely not to a competitor....

I have installed the afco center link and having problems with the toe, I cut the tie rods, but when I center the link the tie rods are not equal length for toe . the right is going to be almost a inch longer than the left. Is that normal or am I missing something? Thanks Steve.

I'm running this center link with you're three piece spindles and 17.5 tie rod assemblies. everything is centered per instructions. it seems to have a lot more steer to the right? and less turns lock to lock . is this normal? steering wheel is centered and I'm running a steering quickener 2:1. maybe 3/4 of a turn to the left and 1 1/2 to the right. any ideas? i realize you can't change the pitman arm location.

Do I need to adjust the pitman arm on my steering box? I just installed the center link, centered it with my frame and set the toe. I now only have a little over one turn lock to lock on my steering. I normally have two and one half. Do I need to center the link with the pitman arm off of my steering box, center the box and put the arm back on after they are centered? Does the center link quicken the steering? Thanks.
