SPL end link adjustment (front)

You should be able to loosen the jamb nut and turn the link to straighten them out, it will make a negligible change in length. Drivers weight, passenger, etc will change the preload more than straightening out the links.

I also got a reply from SPL (sent them an email at the same time I posted this). What they recommended was actually just rotating the rod end without loosening anything - effectively just rotating both the end and the jam nut while still tight so it's closer to center.

Have to just make sure nothing loosens up after driving, but it seems to have fixed the issue.
