Hey guys I installed ct race worx front tie rods and rear radius rods, lined it up measured thought i had it all set, well took it for a ride I need to have steering wheel about 1/8th of turn left to keep machine straight. Can I adjust the tie rods without removing the wheels? I don't think it's anything broke or wrong other than my measurements as the machine is brand new with 30 miles on it. Thanks for any help.

No problem. My wheels are always on for alignment

I know you're just looking to tweak it some but be aware that jacking up the front end will "toe out" the alignment dramatically. It's best to make all alignment adjustments with front end on the ground and the suspension "settled".
