regardless of which you have, the passenger side track rod must be set to a specific length and left alone, any adjustment is made at the driver side only

Surely this doesn't take bent-ish rods, malaligned camber, worn rack bushes etc. into account?

no, but any of the above will be adjusted out with the driver side track rod. note this length is given for all models of MK2 Golf, regardless of the ride height (carb, GTI, 16v etc)

and remember, the manual rack left hand rod isn't adjustable at all from the factory ;)
