Pulled my steering box out and properly adjusted it. No more slop, but now I have to adress my alignment issues!

When using the app on my phone, if I click the thumbnail it switches to a full screen pic I can zoom in/out on. At first glance I thought it was a D35.

Pulled a 8.25 yoke from the junkyard since I broke 2 bolts off in mine yesterday. 40 degrees in the rain sucks. Thank god for front end loaders.

Used my rock lights to see to remove the rear yoke last night.

I did save them and was thinking of that exact use. Where did you get the brackets? Any close up pictures of the mounting bracket at the fender?

Thanks!
