An example of having good steering angles on a TTB suspension. Tie rods are nearly horizontal (inline with the beams). This puts the movement of the steering in proper phase with that of the axle beams, nearly eliminating any bumpsteer (this holds true for custom setups like here, as well as with the stock "y" linkage).
It's unfortunate too many kits on the market don't maintain correct geometry of the steering, and is a huge source of the problems commonly seen on these suspensions (poor handling, tire wear, etc.).
Proper steering is a must with flexible coils such as the XJ coils... (maybe this is why TTB lift coils are made so stiff? Companies using them in an attempt to cover up their engineering failure by restricting the suspension's movement as much as possible??).
