Looking good. Man I need a high steer setup like that.

Looks like you may have to raise the axle track bar mount or make a low frame track bar mount to keep the steering and track bar angle the same so it dont have any bumpsteer. Thats one thing I was worried about with mine.

He's got a bend in the track bar to compensate for that. I just went and looked at this thing and it's top notch. Gonna be a mean machine when its done.


I've got some pics uploading now.

Just so you know a bend will not compensate for that. You can bend the track bard however you want even bend circles in it. The geometry is a straight line from point a to b. If they dont follow the same arc then it may have some bumpsteer.
