well, after you change these parts, you gotta get an alignment. so hes asking for you to get the car put on the machine for before 'numbers' of how your toe is, then compare to what you get after you put it on...

( on that note, never understood before and after requests since its just a replacement and not a correction)

I installed these and got great adjustment from the two pieces on the bottom. Can anyone explain what the purpose of the TRACTION RODS? We tried adjusting them, but didn't see any affect on the machine.
