I agree ROCKA.................You can take out the adjustment in the tie rods. Since i tend to want things exact i usually will go the extra distance to make it spot on. Nothing at all wrong with using the spacers, this is just merely my personal preference.

Re: New guy here..........Starting another build

Got a little more done today. With the help of Captainfab i now have the pinion angle set, axle perches tacked in place and the track bar tacked in place. Finally, the rear end is done with the exception of welding everything out. I will hopefully have the brake lines, fuel lines and steering all hooked up in the next week or so.

I here you man .... Thats been a curse all my life, nothing wrong with being perfect !!!

Just wanted to set things clear, so others would be worried about it ... Besides, then Captain Fab would lose sales ...
