steering rod issue

  •

well doing my steering rack boots today all way going well untill the lock nut on the n/s seized in the wrong place... :headvswal

 

so got one side set-up right but the other is 3 turns too far in, my question is, can i use washers to bring out the rod end?

 

there is no way of budging the nut, short of cutting it off. spent an hour fighting it.

    No........ Get some heat on the nut, a blow lamp will be enough.

    well, till a new nut turns up ill have to leave it.

     

    so i brought the other side in the match it, (using lasers lol)

     

    and i have to say, i really like the change in handling... to the point in which i'm thinking of leaving it.

     

    the toe is now slightly out , and although it feels much more frisky, it turns in so much better, its completely solved the under steer problem.
