You glossed over my alignment question.

This one. https://www.detroitspeed.com/product...parts/090221DS

Yes, I did the alignment. I just went out and measured. It wasn't as bad as I thought. As measured on the exposed tie rod threads, there is 1" on the passenger side and 7/8" on the drivers side. 1/8" difference. From what I understand I should make both sides exposed threads the same? My custom steering wheel has screws on the hub where I can move in 10 degrees increments to get close, but as I have paddle shift it would nice to have it straight up.
