Greetings All,

I had just installed new inner & outer tie rods (oe replacement) and Energy Suspension endlinks. They are the shorter ones since I have lowering springs installed.
Now, my front tires are screeching/skidding sound when turning. Due to now needing an alignment? Anyone experience that?
Counted threads on the old rods, so i wouldn’t think it’s off an extreme amount.

And when I start a turn, I can let go off the wheel and it’ll almost complete the turn on it’s own..anyone dealt with that one before?

Alignment, don't take much off to be a problem.

I figured. Just wanted to see if anyone else experienced this & it ended up being something else.
