Remembering it is a tapered hole....I am looking at these knuckles and there is plenty of meat on them to redrill the tie rod hole about an inch further back.
The benefit would only be at full lock. The anti-Ackerman effect would be present before that and thus more often.This would give me the angle/ratio I want BUT at the expense of slight anti Ackerman. Is it worth it? I will leave it as is for now so I can drive it for a bit and decide later.
A Nissan I ran had anti-Ackerman and it chewed up any surface less than tarmac when turning tightly.
What is the state of play currently? Is the truck up and running, been driven at all since the modifications began, not on the road yet? If you've been driving it, anything to say on how the steering feels? I tripped over an article discussing electric power steering and it remarked on the inherent friction in electric systems being greater than in other systems to the point where the steering geometry sometimes has to be modified to compensate. Are you seeing anything of that?
