Message	What loads or loading conditions were causing the aftermarket FUCA's to bend like they were. I see where these will take care of some of the torsional moment loads, but now you are transferring some of that to the tie rods as you said. I wonder how it will affect steering feel? Bump steer etc.. Also you will still have the braking or acceleration loads causing a moment about the adjustment point which should not change much. That's why I was wondering what loading conditions were causing the earlier styles to fail. Just curious of you know. Thanks,
