Stock XR6 suspension is pointing up slightly and low kings have made it worse.

Tyre wear was still quite good and steering was more direct. You need to run poly bushes on the front upper and lower arms though, the rubber ones move around too much.

Thanks, I've got polys on the lowers. Upper polys is on the list.

You wouldn't happen to know the tie rod thread and taper specs or is there a standard?
