Re: Paging Ryan

Went out and snapped a few pics of the first truck I used the Dodge arm on back in 2000, drove it 7 years with no problems. It has a 4" lift and the only steering correction is the reverse tapered Dodge arm. If I did another like this I would use the bung like Ryan used...when you ream the arm from the opposite side you run out of meat about halfway thru the thickness of the end, it's plenty enough to hold the tie rid end but having a full taper would be better.
