hmmm...thanks Clem...I wonder if that's what mine needs, or if the problem could be cured with a '72 idler arm as opposed to the '66...i'm thinking it would probably be cheaper to just modify the pitman if that's indeed the problem...my dad would have to get somebody to do the welding as well...maybe some others will chime in before we go that route...I thought the setup I have would work, at least from what I've read...but we all know how these things go
