lowered fox with sn95 spindles. Do I need bump steer?

[Tommy]

My first time around the block with this.....

My 90 has lowering springs and I recently did the 94-95 sn95 spindle swap. Now it has some serious toe-in. Would the tie-rods adjust out or should I buy a bump steer kit? Would I even need a bump steer kit? The kit doesn't seem to even have a geometrical advantage. It seems to me (from pictures) that it's just a fancy tie rod end. How would it benefit?

Yes, you need to install bump stops to prevent metal to metal contact in your front suspension parts that can occur when you lower a car. However, this will not solve your alignment problems.

Adjustable caster/camber plates will fix your suspension alignment problems. You set the toe on the vehicle using the tie rod ends, and a string/measuring tape/straight edge of some sort. However, your camber will still be off. This means you will wear out the inner edges of your tires first.
