Thanks for your reply.
I did adjust the toe in following the lift to the proper 1/8", no problem there and then.
The current problem didn't arise until I moved the front axle forward 2".
I'm thinking that since I moved the front axle forward I have changed the relative angle of the tie rods to a more straight line which allows them to pivot like a pendulum on their own.
I thinking that the proper angle of the tie rods should be with the wheel-end pointed slightly towards the rear of the cart. I'm guessing that I may have to modify the tie rod extenders in order to reestablish the previous hole locations prior to the axle move.
Am I on the right track here? Has anyone else done this?
Thanks again.
