Re: Drag Link Clearance

Once steering is initiated, the pitman and idler arm move, causing drag link to move away from crossmember. Since I do not have anything to compare to, what is the center/neutral clearance of the drag link on these things?

Thanks for any info


hello, what was the outcome with the draglink hitting the crossmember/ i know this is a old thread but i just came across the same problem with my truck. i have all the bolts tight but no cotter pins yet an no torque on them either, any help much appreciated. thanks
