  3. Did you do the Ackerman thing to your steering arms when you moved the tie rod to the front?

    You need to heat your steering arms and bend them out toward the tire more. Eye of steering arm needs to be inline with kingpin and rearend center. Hope that helps. Maybe someelse can explain it with a drawing or something.
