Installing Steering Kit 11’ PW

Quick question,
Is it possible to install full steering kit without doing an alignment? Drag link and tie rods. Thanks.

Yes, you can remove the old kit and then install one end of the new tie rod. Turn the adjuster until the other pin plops into place. Get the drag link installed with a safe amount of threads, don’t bother centering the steering wheel. Get everything snugged you and make sure I didn’t miss anything. Drive it to the alignment shop and get an alignment. It is almost impossible to do a half good alignment on this axle without an alignment rack or at least the brake rotor alignment plates. Just get it professionally aligned.
