Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

Did you mean binding at the LCA to K member pins? Because usually there is talk of binding at the strut rod heim joint near the front of the K member. I have installed the PST greasable pin kit with poly bushing in the LCA. I was thinking I could shorten the strut rods just a bit (1/16" ??)from the stock ones without binding and to be sure they were actually not longer than the originals.

You can have binding at both, but the binding between the LCA and the pivot pin is the larger problem and the harder one to deal with. The heim at the front of the strut just has to be angled so that the heim can travel through the whole range without running out of side tolerances, and has nothing to do with the length of the strut rod. Just the angle of the slot in the forward mount and the movement of the heim.
