Thanks everyone on the compliments on the truck, I havent been able to work on it for the past week due to my 93 year old grandma having a stroke, i had been staying at the hospital out if town until she passed away on Monday due to the congested heart failure she had been fighting the stroke just did her in....When i got home the swaybar mounting brackets i was waiting on showed up so thats what i been working on:
lowered swaybar brackets:
ground off the rivets and drilled some holes and mounted them:
Used some dollar store oven cleaner to clean up the sway bar and bushing brackets i got at pick-n-pull:
painted the brackets and swaybar:
Then after fighting getting everything lined up i bolted it on, as you can see i needed the the swaybar mounting brackets(lowered type) because the power steering box hangs lower then the stock steering box:
Heres a picture of the swaybar next to the idler arm fits tight on this side also:
everything works and steers just fine!!!
I took a couple pictures of it out on the street so you guys can see that it does drive
got to adjust the brakes next..
