Do I need to run bumpsteer adjustable tie rod ends with the AFX spindle?

0

No. The AFX spindles were engineered with bump steer in mind. We designed the steering arm attachment points lower than factory to improve the bumpsteer for the F body cars. By re-using the factory F body steering arm, we were able to bring bump steer down to nearly zero. Because the A body cars are front steer (and therefore require the steering arm holes to be raised from the factory location) a new steering arm was designed in-house to cure the issue. Bump steer correcting tie rod ends can still be used as an additional tuning method, but the install should be measured afterwards with a bump steer gauge to make sure that the issue was improved, and not worsened.
