Ridetech 11249570 Operating instructions

  • Hello! I've reviewed the installation instructions for the ridetech 68-70 GM A-Body Steering Kit. This document details the components included, such as tie rod adjusters, jam nuts, and tie rods. It also provides important notes regarding installation, specifically how to identify the left hand thread and the required thread engagement. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about the kit or its installation.
  • What is the purpose of the Tie Rod Adjuster?
    How do I identify the left-hand threaded side of the adjuster?
