can you post pics of the knuckles if you don't mind?

also if you have a newer rubber tie rod boot you can slip it towards the inner ball joint which will give you throw before the boot max's out..

Use safety wire instead of zipties

Just by this thread I would go with JTPs knuckles, he is obviously easy to get a hold of and very stand up guy. 100$ now could save so much trouble later

I just realized how old the OP is.. haha my bad

Alignment
First I had to recenter the rack making sure from center it's 1 1/2 turns left and right. Then remove/reinstall steering wheel so it's straight and adjust tie rods. In order to get a 0 toe angle I cut off 1/4 from each end of the inner tie rod.

Before tie rod cut (toe maxed out)
