Is a bumpsteer kit needed with SN95 brakes?

Just like the title says. My toe-in is really out of wack. Seems like I need a longer tie rods.

The 94-95 Brake booster was a major PITA. Worst project I did on my stang so far. Glad it's over with. Had to slot a few holes and hammer the strut tower quite a bit to seat in there correctly. Removed the upper intake bolts also for more room. From start to finish was around 6 hours. Under the dash was also a nightmare. lol

I'd say it's needed even without the newer brakes / spindles. The suspension on our cars is less than ideal for corners and or bumps. Here is a pretty cool site that might help you out. Mustang Suspension

Edit: Here is another section from the same website: Suspension Teminology

If your car is a 91 - 93 it has Tie Rod Ends designed to limit bumpsteer. If not you can buy a Bumpsteer Kit or the 91 - 93 Ends.
