OK well i been doing a not upgrade but improvement on my car. I did the whole ES master bushing kit and bought all new ball joints and new tie rod ends. Well i seen they sell on PBM tie rod spacers? that its suppose to give it more angle not alot but some more. I really cant figure out how this is? how does the spacer give it more angle? and also if i were to get the spacers i have seen that there is less thread on the driver side tie rod than the passenger side would that be a problem? would i need to get two passenger side tie rods for it be safe?

Thanks for the help in advance. i know its alot but im like hella lost with the whole steering thing? as far as tie rods and all that

They make the inner arms longer and then you thread the outer in further and they create more total distance because the inner rods travel further, and work well.
