It was a sharper turn but not a clover-leaf. I was just looking at car-parts.com for 3L so that looks like that may be the route I will go, seems to be plenty of them avalible in the WA state area, specially Escape 3L... I'm gonna go look for a guide to see what needs to be done to make the 2000 CSVT ready for the 3L, if anyone can point me in the right direction I will be back to check this thread periodically.
