While you did it did you check for any binding like Is your steering bar hitting the spring or the pitman arm on the steering box hitting the chassis.

If not disconnect the drag link and check to see if the steering box is reaching its limit when turning left. If so you will need to pull the pitman arm off (needs a puller) and then centre all the steering so that you get equal lock both ways.

As long as it hasn't weakened the Zbar it should be alright I guess
