I took my Mach 1 for an alignment and the place turned out to be lousy. Anyway, they must have not had the wheel straight when they did it. If you aim the wheel straight it will go left. So I just want to confirm to fix it I need to lengthen the driver tie rod and shorten the passenger side. Thanks

If the wheel is straight and the car goes left, you need to tighten the drivers side and loosen the passenger side tie rods an equal amount. Start with 1/4 turn on each and see where that gets you.

If they got that wrong, I wouldn't trust that the toe is set correctly either.

This is why I have been doing my own alignments with toe plates and / or strings for many years on many vehicles...
