everything I have read and been told is that the drag link adjustment is just to straighten the steering wheel. I thought it would adjust the passenger side wheel as well. I did read an article late last night that one tech said it could on a straight axle, but the adjustment would be so minimal it wouldn’t really be a benefit. I don’t know I’m just glad I finally got it done.

[QUOTE=IJM;3589998]Glad to hear you got it sorted out. People seem to forget that you don't need both wheels exactly the same relative to the car to get it to drive straight. Turning the wheel while you drive will make both wheels point equally ahead. The trick is getting the overall toe set (i.e. both wheels aligned with each other), and only then worry about getting the wheel centered. Another way to think about it is one wheel being +2° and the other being -2° doesn't mean your toe is off, it just means your steering wheel will be a little crooked when driving straight.[/QUOTE
thank you IJM.
