I've been thinking about this for a bit now and I don't have a good reason why this is happening.

S13, stock inner/outter tie rod.

Bolt on rod spacer on passenger side. Slip on spacer for driver side.

Shortened pass side inner rod.

Rack centered, wheel removed and installed in new centered position. Turns 1.6 turns each way.. Zero toe when centered.

Now turning left I get the tie rod to hit the bump stop. Turning to the right it does not even touch, and there is noticeable less angle. The wheels rotates the exact same amount either way. And in the center I have zero toe.

Wtf am I doing wrong?
