Not designed for both directions, I'd take a good look at that. Shame, it is a REALLY cool and functional piece. I can check the part number on the one I have, but it is the one listed in their catalog of two years ago, I don't "think" they have changed it?

Heads-up.

Mark,

You are 100% correct. We found out after we installed all the steering parts that the center link is for those folks that like to only turn left. We ended on modifying the Howe link so the Ackerman was the same left to right. We were scratching our heads for a little at first. Thanks for the heads up!

Brian
