I am playing with lower arm lengths on the right front of a 2000 GRT. What approximate length should the right tie rod be at with a 17 5/8 lower? I built a lower that is 19 1/4 that I want to try but am unsure what length to start with. GRT gives a length for the left front so should I just make the right at what ever I need to get the toe to work out?

Yes the right is whatever you end up with to get the toe right.

Go through your bumpsteer for sure though because it will change!

Just my opinion but I would get the right side correct for bump steer and then set toe with the left. Right side bump steer is way more important than left side I think. But I could be wrong.

Thanks for the quick response. I will get the bump under controll before I go to the track. I agree with you that the right side bump is important and I am an old asphalt racer so I have played with it many times. As long as it don't bump in any we'll be ok. They all bump a little, you just need to take controll of which direction it bumps and dail it in from there. Thanks

Let go play "race"
