Hi All,

Looking or some help on ow to properly install some bump steer on a 1991 Mustang LX.

1. Do I let the tires lay on the floor and then adjust accordingly, or do I have the car on jacks and adjust from there. (See pic)

thx

Full weight of the car must be on the suspension. I typically pull the wheels and put support under the balljoint.

To really set it, it needs to be measured. Eyeballing only gets you so close.

You want parallel from inner pivots to the balljoint pivot, not the physical control arm itself
