    Johnny mentioned lock spacers before, but haven't heard anything since...

    If I put KE30/KE55 LCA's in my AE71, with an AJPS lock spacer on the rack, everything such as castor rods and sway bar and ball joint will bolt directly up, and I wont need to get different tie rod/rack ends...correct?

    If so, and then I put p/s arms on, would I then need to change tie rod/ rackend?

    Stock tie rod ends will work with or without power steering arms with the above setup

    i'm running te72 LCA's on xt130 struts in an st141......with about -1 camber

    the te72(t18) arms are the same length as ke70/st141 etc.....but,where the ball joint is they bend up on more of an angle?! hence creating negitive camber.....Or so I've found!
    Don't quote me on that!
