Meaning - Do you have to apply pressure (opposite of the turn direction) to the steering wheel to keep the turn-rate constant? Does the car want to steer more into the turn?

Farm tractors tend to have an appreciable amount of positive camber (tops of steering wheels are further apart than the bottom). This makes the tractor easier to turn since they usually only have manual steering and tend to have a great amount of weight on the wheels. It is fine for a tractor which may never go faster than 15mph, but it's downright dangerous for a car which routinely travels over 60mph.

All front end parts are new as of last week... Withe the exception of the idler and center link. There is no tractor like quality either.
