Ok so i never really liked the steering in this blazer of mine it felt squirly at speed and was hard to turn when parked ..

I noticed this the other day

Shouldnt the tierod end be mounted in the hole furthest out front rather than where it is now?

It doesnt make sense why its mounted in this location ... the xover steering is from ord does anyone have any thoughts on this .. it seems obviuos to me that i should relocate it but this has me wondering...
 
I'm pretty sure it's in the correct hole. That arm is for crossover with hi-steer. If you were using hi-steer then the tie rod would need to be in the front hole.
 
can't see the pic, but I have crossover high steer on my 10 bolt, the Drag link is in the hole closest to the front of the truck, and the tie rod is in the rear hole, otherwise they would hit when turning.
 
I stand corrected then. His draglink is in the rear hole on the passenger side.
 
according to the pics on ORD, that is in the wrong spot... the dre goes to the front and the tre (if you where running hi-steer) goes to the back..
