this last weekends work
So i installed the new track bar and my sway bar stuff.
I have yet to decide if i like the change, i like cornering with the sway bar, so im 100% happy with that, but i was having fun freaking people out when i turn too. lol
The track bar is so so, I think my angles are much better well they match better, but i wish they were more parallel with the tie rod..
she needs an alignment and excuse the pissy *** paint job for now, I'm just trying to block the rust until i get more time to tear it all apart and repaint.

sorry prices have gone down, used to be like 700 something, now its like 550.
Just a note that the draglink uses a different taper then the stock one, so the steering you have now wont work.

looks like a decent kit, i just want that knucle, but heck i cant even run the wheels li have now! forget that, i think ill live with the little bumpsteer i have until i can have enough money for A D44, then ill do high steer and relocate the track bar once more.
i think my steering box and my current track bar mount is fine just needs changed on the axle...

you have to have wheels with 3.5" backspacing or less. mine are 3.625, i could prolly grind on the knuckle some, its only an 1/8 of an inch.
the next problem i would have is the track bar mount and the sway bar links....
any ideas on the track bar mount? there is no possible way to make it longer, or lower... i would have to raise the mount on the axle
