Why don't you just pull the steering wheel & crush can and remount it in the center position?

hmmm...that would be nice eh...The crush can and wheel are mounted correctly (master spline), the fast ratio pitman arm (PST) is a half a tooth off. SO my option are unequal length tie-rods to center the wheel or us a stock ratio arm.  The car was aligned with the fast ratio arm last year, then I switched to power steering this year and the issue presented itself.  With the manual steering the wheel was straight. 

So instead of shimming the bow and grinding a master spline, I an just going to go back to the stock ratio arm.  No sure I like the fast ratio anyway.

Wow! Such an extensive list surely calls for a meeting of the minds and some high level discussions. I think you should call local c-c.com members Ian, Doug and Murray to come over and help you with your decision over a few wobbley pops.  :naughty:  :drunk:

I agree....we should see if we can find a night that works for everyone and get together for a few  :cheers:

looks like my decision has been made....new exhaust it is.

Member Topcat made me an offer I could not refuse on replacement mufflers and resonators.

I am eagerly waiting for them to arrive at my mail box in the US.  I need a few more pieces for the install, but I will have it on for next spring.

Thanks again Mike!
