BTF has some nice stuff! Talk about beef. Kinda disappointed the hole is at an angle, I need to bore it out to 3/4" for my heims but i cant on a drill press, have to go over and use my buddies mill.

 

Beefy!

You really need to move closer. I could take them to work and have the tool and die makers mill them for you.

 

oh my buddy is gonna do it, shouldnt take long, its just the fact that i couldnt finish them up last night.

 

Damn those look nice!

 

That is going to look good under the F250!!!

 

Lol yeah Josh scoop that **** up!

 

Got my high steer arms machined so i could run 7/8" heims, i had originally planned on 3/4" but i had these 7/8s sitting here so why not. Ballisitic is kinda slow so this will work.

I think they should have shipped some longer studs for these arms because that kingpin assembly sucks with short studs.

The knuckle turns a bit hard so I am not sure if its assembled 100% right but we will see.

I was a bit frustrated, I attempted to install the 5.13s but soon found out they shipped a D30 install kit not a D60. So now it sits in more pieces.

maybe by the end of the week it will be reassembled.

 

damn D30 FTL

 

cant wait to see her all buttoned up!

 

lol yeah, but hey just throw some D30 TREs on there and you got a match made in heaven.

 

whats the piece bolted to the ground by the passenger side knuckle..

that your bender..it just seems low...

 

its the bender.

 

how high is it off the ground right now..it just seems low...I was thinking to make it waist high..

 

it is probably 40-42. that D60 is huge!

 

The holes are at an angle in the arms so that with a traditional tie-rod like you are using, while straight, the heims are neutral and are not using any mis-alignment.

 

thanks Jey.

I left them at the 8* angle, just bored it out to 3/4" and then machined the recess to fit my misalignments.

Do you guys have instructions for these arms? I tightened the 4 nuts to 80ft/lbs like you would the caps. it turns pretty hard right now though. any ideas?

 

Haha yeah I was gona say that. its no dana 30 sitn next to it.

 

Looks like you bent the bender lol

 

how many drugs have you been taking?

 

hes just been stroken it for too long

 

I lost count...but it seriously looks bent lol

 

I can't get it started because my hands ache - I will have to wait until the woman gets home so she can start it up for me....

 

well i hope its not. it should be straight!

 

It's looking good.. is'nt it sapposed to be a lil tight? its all new hardware right? sucks you got the wrong kit

 

it will probably break in, i hope. i dont really want to take it apart for a long time.
