how is the toe at drive height?

i raised the upper control arms to lay it on 22's cuz for some reason they dont make drop spindles for this year, i got it set up drive height but when i lay it out or close to it they cut in so hard it kills my tires really bad

go back and cut the upper a-armmounts out. with the suspension at half travel or ride height { sometimes the same thing} and the steering wheel straight, you should be able to draw a straight line through the lower a arm bushing, though the inner tie rod end or steering pivot, and the upper a arm mount. cut out the upper mount, and dont just raise em, move them out until the upper bushings fall in that imaginary line. Just use a laser or a straightedge to get it right, make sure they have the right angle for anti-dive and/or caster, and weld em up. There you go, little camber change, and no excess toe. from there its time to do a driveway alignment.

Also check all the steering links and tie rod ends to see how much angle they have when layed out, might need to go to a rack and pinion kit to help correct it

i would call belltech up and see if their spindle will work, I think it should because the only diff was that the 01 had welded in balljoints.

that is true, changing the angel of the steering rod at the knuckle could help with some of the suspension arc problems you are encountering, simply by flipping the tie rod end and re tapering the spindle. Either way, the a-arms and steering link all need to follow the same arc, to eliminate bumpsteer.

the wheels still stay fairly straight up and down , not much camber when it lays , i already moved the control arms up , it seems that the tie rod links are short as hell , the ones on my chevy are a helluva alot longer , guess a rack an pinion is an option , where do i get one that will fit or close to it?
