From what I can see on my phone, your bottom driver's side LCA mount is bent to shite. Looks like it could be putting that heim in a bind.


They are Krawler joints so they are actually made to pivot.

Is your tie rod bent also?


Yeah, bent to shite. Had a straight one on for a while and it made no difference, this one had better TRE's, but not by much. That is the next area I will upgrade, but I need the larger rims to accommodate.

Can't really tell because it looks like you rubbed ky jelly on the camera lens


Part of the hazard of my job, the chemicals/powders I think are to blame. They get inside the lens of the phone.

For starters, I rocked a Casino G'zone Commando for a while. Toughest phone I have ever seen. Even fire resistant believe it or not. I have tested.

Those heim joints can only pivot so much. That driver's side one looks like it is binded up to me.

found your problem

I was talking about the actual rod that goes to each knuckle though

More pics
Drivers LCA mount, yeah I know the bracket is bent, but there is no movement.


Passenger drag link and tie rod


Drivers Drag link


Very little orbital movement in the drag link, takes a lot of force. Tie rod has orbital, maybe a little up/down on the passenger side.
