Paul thank you for your efforts. I for one appreciate all you and Empire have done in the past and now to help sort this out. The risers are a serious problem, however there is NO WAY I would EVER GO BACK TO MORGANS solution with the bump steer and floating sensation I had before the Empire kit. At one point I seriously thought about giving up the car before Empire, I have no problem with the idea of drilling out the steering arms for a through bolt. On my car both tapers were different. One was right and the other was a little loose. I tightened both risers down and made sure there was no gap where the riser meets the steering arm. I feel safer in the car than before Empire. I would however entertain the idea of a new riser design of stainless steel as a through bolt design. I am more than willing to pay for any upgrade just as I have been to pay for the many upgrades for the rest of the car. The remarkable improvement in the handling of the car means I would would never remove my Empire kit. Thanks again Paul for your efforts.
