Did some work today. Did a oil change that was much needed. Also re welded up a sway bar mount. Here some pics. My angles don't look that bad.

I wish you'd make an effort to fix it. It'd feel much better than stock steering.
It currently feel likes stock steering is because the angles are just as bad.
You'd enjoy it much more with just a little bit more work.

The problem is that you have both of your heims almost completely maxed out.
I'd want it much more parallel to the ground.
This is mine. (Ignore the leak)

The only difference with mine is that I have high steer arms. You're not going to be able to get it that high on stock Dana 30 knuckles but it'd sure help if you put the tie rod over the knuckle and double shear with the drag link and put the pitman arm end of the drag link under the pitman arm. Then move your trac bar to match the drag link angle.
I plan to make my pitman arm double shear.

Oh your talking about bringing everything down. Ok. So do you think if I got one of those track bars that drop I would be at a better angle so I could drop the drag link under the pitman arm.Originally Posted by lowrange2

Ok. When you said parallel I was looking at the angles and they seem pretty close. But now that you say more parallel to the ground it makes sense. I know rough country has a track bar that drops about 5 inches. That should give me enough rom to move the drag link under the pitman arm.Originally Posted by lowrange2

It's amazing how not even a half turn of the track bar bolt fixed all my wondering problems.
