Nearing completion of the upgrade to disc brakes here and have noticed something which I do not recall reading in any of the related posts.
When you replace all of the spindles, tierods, etc. do you have to cut the tie rod lengths in order to get the front wheels aligned? I ask this since I have everything bolted on and still in the air and noticed the wheels are not parallel. I took care to make sure they were somewhat close in total end-to-end length on the original tierod links and installed everything. My assumption here is the end link at the end of the spindles are a little different than the original drum spindles.
Therefore, as I screwed in on the threaded collars I ran out of room since the tips of the inner/outer rods ran into each other. Are we expecting to cut these down or did I install something wrong?
