AFCO 30271 1978-88 GM Metric Improved Geometry Steering Center Link

Improved geometry drag link relocates the inner tie rod end to shorten both tie rod assemblies, which improves steering geometry by reducing the excessive toe out that is common to GM Metric chassis during normal suspension travel (bump steer). '78-'88 Monte Carlo G-Body

Anyone familiar with this part?

How does it compare to using the original center link & an aftermarket tie rod bump steer kit?

Will it perform as well or better with a tie rod that has a ball joint at each end, vs. a Heim joint? Does the spindle end of the tie rod still need to be mounted lower?

I'm thinking a ball joint would be preferable to a Heim joint for street driver longevity.

Found a few reviews that state the left hand turning range is reduced.

I was considering this center link until I called them.
The improvement for this one was so it would turn better - left only.
