steering upgrade
got some more done today.
got the steering tacked up, and the track bar mocked up.
full droop
compression..the angle makes the bar look high,,but its actually in line with the drag link.
unfinished track bar mount, axle side.
3/4 3/4 ruff stuff heims and 1.5 .250 DOM all around for those interested.
all hardware is 5/8 grade 8 with crush nuts.
I have the frame side all mocked up and made templates..just need some time to break out the plasma and cut them out.
