Re: Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step

Tie rod sleeves are done ...plenty of clearance now. Should have bought the small diameter jam nuts from Speedy Bill. Making my own didn't really save me any $$ when you consider the time spent milling down the flats. But, hey, they're in and ready for the alignment shop one of these days.

Next up is to modify the eBay sourced, "high quality, made in the USA" alternator bracket to replace my prototype. Beginning to think there is something seriously wrong with me, as I was unable to grasp the "high quality" part of the description. No problem, though, it will be fine after some time with the welder and belt sander.
