I recently had to switch from the improved geometry center link to a stock metric centerlink to make the car legal at a couple tracks I go to. I replaced everything with stock 78-88 metric parts. Inner and outer tie rods, center link and idler arm. With the steering centered, the left side is even and the RF is Toed out 2”. Both tie rods are 18” long and screwed all the way in. No more adjustment. Is it common to have to cut/shorten each side? I figured with all stock parts I shouldn’t have to cut anything. I checked two different RF spindles with a spindle Checker and each one was good and had the exact same toe out on RF. I wanted to make sure I’m not over looking something before I cut the Inner tie rods. Then the RF assembly will be a good bit shorter than the LF and was wondering if that will cause more issues.
