G-Body vs. bumpsteer...
I've already gone through some of the threads that have talked about bumpsteer, but I'm still a bit in the dark as far as the tie rod end vs. lca angle goes. I've seen a couple kits that are supposed to help counteract bumpsteer, but I've also seen talk of tall upper/lower balljoints. Right now I'm running a set of Hotchkis 1902 springs on my '81 Malibu, 34mm F-Body front sway bar, and stock G-Body rear bar. Is there a combination of balljoints/tie rod ends I could use to help correct the steering?

Give Mark at SC&C a call. He told me the adjustable tie rods are not needed on a G-Body. Originally Posted by Doober

Tall lower ball joints help a lot with the bump steer.
