	Ford used to offer an 'improved' (and expensive) tie rod end that significantly helped bumbsteer problems. I read about it in a book called 'mustang performance 2' available at Amazon. I placed a set of these tie rod ends on my 86 LX, which is lowered about 1.5-2" in the front and it seemed to make a good deal of difference. It might have been the placebo effect, so I can't be sure. I think Western Motorsports had a blurb on their website on why not to use offset rack bushings. In my opinion, 2" may seem cool, but the loss of driveability I encountered was not worth it. I went back to a .5-.75 lower all around. Bling is on its way out anyways...

I went back to a .5-.75 lower all around. ...And don't forget every little bump your car will bottom-out on. Better avoid speed bumps ! I had to be careful with the 1.25 inch drop on my 95.
