while uninstalling the factory traction links, they were under quite a bit of preload and required some elbow grease to remove. upon inspection, the factory arm on one side was about 10mm too short to reinstall the bolts without a fight.
the new links are adjustable so i could either install them at zero-preload length and leave them that way, or i could shorten them back to the factory lengths after getting the bolts though.
i know using the zero-preload length will change the alignment, although, the factory alignment being off is likely the root cause of the misalignment (suspension bind?).
i am not planning to replace any other arms at the moment. what is best practice in this situation?
