Ahhhh ok, I couldn't see the other pieces in there before. Awesome dude, I'm stoked for you.
Could you please get some pics of the steering on the driver side like pitman arm and just some from the bottom showing how it's setup? I know the basics of that style but I'd like to see how yours is. Thanks. That's gonna be a badass ride when it's done.
Sure thing. Ill take some pics tonight when i get home from work.
That's a lot of adjustment on those heims,how far deep are they into the adapters?
1 1/2" in.
Oh ok, that makes sense those are pretty long.
Won't notice it with the front wheels off of the ground.
That is one crazy looking pitman arm.
That is what mine looks like. Except I kept the 4x4 box and encapsulated the pinch portion.
No. The shorter pitman arm throw is compensated for by the longer cantilever arms.
Geometry ftw.
Geometry ftw.
that little pitman tube is cute as the dickens!
I likey this build, and I am glad I found it after the beams were done so I didn't have to wait several months like you did. 
Started off the weekend having todo van repair. Somehow a sparkplug backed itself out and finally the compression blew it out friday on my drive home from work. Smashed the coil pack when it blew. Drove it home that way and fixed it saturday.
Then onto truck. Got my engine cage as far as I can for now until I get shocks mounted. So motor is going to come out probably next weekend so it can head to the machine shop for a freshing up.
Then today i spent alot of time today fixing something that has been bugging me since i did it. This dead node in my back half. Hate using my time to redo work i have already done, but this had to be done. Much happier with it now.
