XXL,... What are you going to do with the old crossmember? I'm looking for one to cut up.

Nice road rash I've got on the front edge of that control arm. Note: Somewhere in Wichita there's a missing yellow dot from the road. :metal:

BTW... capt kaos, we discussed potential tie rod clearance issues, but you felt it wouldn't be a problem. Oops :(
|
I hear grinding noises in your future. I"ve had to do that to every crossmember I've built so far same spot.

How come there is not alot of Pabst Blue Ribbon. I see ALOT of Lite's though. Pabst Blue Ribbon is the poor boy special!

OUCH I remember asking those questions to Bill Turner when I was only going to do the member and not the Rack and pinion. He spoke of turning the parts backwards somehow?? Not sure if he was blowing $hit up my ARSE or what??

Let the problems begin...
|
Where are your spacers for the upper control arms? You also need your borgenson joints to clear your upper arm, any time you go that low you are going to need to do it.
Where are the budweisers? |

On my buddies 85 the shop that did the alignment used spacers that were dished to match the shaft on the outside of the spacer stack.
|
Did '73+ trucks have such a spacer on them from the factory?? That's the only explanation I could come up with.
