Default Steering link logic

Hi Terry

I've pondered over this same issue with the GM links. Also I just looked through all of my Ford and Chevy parts books and manuals. What I come up with seems to match your pictures. The only exceptions I found was in some prewar Chevy that had a four spring arrangement. I attached the GM drawing that I've gone with.

What always throws me off is that logic would say that the two springs should be working in opposite directions to help absorb impact before the steering box.
