what is your caster set at?

and what rear axle are you using?

 

like 05edge said...

you can only mount that steering box so far forward then the pitman arm jogs back even more, causing the drag link to bind with the tierod/panhard etc. THe way mine is done it cant go any further forward at all. its so tight.

 

not sure on the D44, but i know with the 60s you can run a steering behind the axle.. is that a possibility?

 

well like i said guys...i have the leafs backwards right now. Its odd cuz theyre the way theyre made to face right now...but the guy before me had em set the other way. so the axles supposed to sit like about 2.5" back from where it is now.

anyways, idk what all that **** is set at lol...and im being honest. i dont understand caster and crap...i get camber a lil but thats it.

the way the steering box is supposed to be mounted on my setup is the first bolt hole on the steering box is 1.5" from the back of the first body mount. if that makes sense to u guys.

but ya, this whole setup is an exact copy of what it came off of, so im doing everything he had done...and hoping for the best.

as for the rear axle, its an expo 8.8 with 4.88's and a detroit.

i am mad though cuz im going to have to reset my stupid clockspring cuz i never thought of my steering wheel flailing around all over the place...ugh.

 

beef!!!

 

Pssh...Run the axle that far forward and hydro it!!!

 

good idea! ill send you my paypal address

 

You best figure out what caster is real quick then ! otherwise you in store for problems.

 

well ok, lemme correct myself. i know what caster is...but unsure of how to change it.

 

were did you get the lights for your grill, i find them on ebay but dont know how to mount them.

 

summit. and i have a buildish thread somewhere...go search my threads.

 

got a gift from summit today. 4.75" of Backspacing should help alot and for 184, i cant complain too much!

 

This thing's going to look sick when it's done. Nice job on everything so far.

 

thanks. im really tryin the best i can...its unfortunate that my work vacation is up now and i still dont have a ride to the truck when i want though.

otherwise id have the rear axle mounted up right now lol

 

Black stepside SAS... it's like I'm looking into the future. Looks sweet man.

 

sweet! you should have bought my leafs, I have jeys custom alcans from his first setup that I have no idea what to do with now.

 

lol but for 300 bucks i got my waggy fronts and alcan rears hah...so i feel like i got a pretty damn good deal on those.
