DJM also has a tie rod relocator kit that is said to alleviate the bump steer issue.

lcas have problems being aligned too! bumpsteer is very annoying IMO. if i wanted to feel like i had an old truck, id buy one. get the mcgaughys spindles they are the best and the ride is outstanding.

I have had my DJM LCA's for 5 years with no un usual tire wear or alignment problems. Not sure where you get that they cant be aligned. Bumpsteer is there, but I dont think its unbearable. If it is, there is a solution.
I would use McGaughy only on a 4wd/AWD/torsion equipped truck. Other than that, it would be LCA's or even coil springs. Cant stand the turning radius.

Damn, my turning radius sucks like it is stock but, I'd really like to lower the SS two inches or so. I've heard bad about both the BellTech and McGaughys spindle now.
