I have a question regarding setting preload on passenger side. I set the pinion angle on drivers side at 2degrees down, getting my measurements from driveshaft and inion yoke but want to set neutral preload. I installed this setup, so am I just turning the lower adjuster with a wrench to get the bolt to slide freely in and out from the front eyehole? I have my son in the driver seat for proper weight. http://chassisengineering.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=25_220&product_id=386

Yes. You will feel when the adjuster slackens. That will be your neutral position. Recheck your pinion angle afterwards.

Why do you think you need preload? Run the car at neutral first, and see what it does.

I set my bars with the nose at instant center. I added just enough preload by hand to take the slack out I guess. Goes straight for me
