Having too low of a car affecting steering?
Having too low of a car affecting steering?
i have a 97 camaro with a Pro kit on it: 1.5 inch drop
Also has bmr k-member and with there a-arms: ~1.3 inch drop
(just a note, they dont tell you but yes, BMR A-arms do lower your car)
So im running ~2.5'' drop up front
alignment is great
my question is, what is this doing to me steering rack and tierod ends?
they are at a very steep angle.
Lately i have had Lots and lots of loud "clunks" or loud clicks when i go over bumps and or anytime i hit the brakes. Sound like its gunna fall aprt lol
I know it not my lower ball joints or anthing blocking the steeting colum.
Any ideas? and fixes? it is binding tie rods ends?

Anytime you run that low your going to get the odd clunk and scrape here and there. You might be nose diving and scraping/clunking because of your shocks and the drop you have. Or you might be putting the rack in a bind. The tie rods slope a little down anyway, but I'm not sure at which size would be the limit. But don't bend anything in the steering system, your asking for trouble.
well technically, my spring/shock assembly just thinks its as low as a regular pro kit. the shape oif the A-arms make the other 1.3 '' drop.
literally every time i hit the brakes, and sometimes when i turn a get a sharp, loud click. all bolts have been check and are tight
cannot duplicat on jacks
