Hey guys, i just put my coilovers on, and i noticed that the toe out is kinda ridiculous. when lengthening the tie rod end, i didnt have much thread if any at all that i could work with. Is there any sort of way to extend the tie rod or bring the toe out back in? has anyone dealt with this before?!! Need help ASAP!!!

Did you get an alignment yet? I think they can fix that unless you wanna do all the work.

Yeh, i went to get an alignment and they cant do it cuz the inner tie rods are maxed out to where they cant go out any farther.

Ahh then you might have to get new ones. I have Racelands which are basically the same thing but I didn't get that problem but they recommended me to buy upper trailing arms cuz that back camber is too much haha

i've read reviews where some shops had no clue how to align it.. so you might want to try another shop?
