Maybe it thought you meant "desparate", as in different types of bolts. That would almost make sense. I would want to use any desperate fasteners on my steering. Too risky.

That's "disparate". As in "disparate is dead, no more, has shuffled off this mortal coil", etc. :haha:

Seriously, though, I don't know how you guys access the web from your phones and smaller tablets. I guess I just have fat fingers.

Much better angle and I had the tie rod off a little bit with the wood so I clamped the metal to the rotors. Someone bumped into the truck while it has been sitting hte passed few weeks so it took some time to put it back into shape.


The drag link and pan hard bar have a .4 of a difference in angle the panhard is the difference, will this be ok?
 
That looks way better to me. I don't think that less than one degree difference will matter at all. In fact I would think that would be considered a really good angle. Awesome job man! It's coming right along now.

much much better.. looks good man..
 
So uhhhhh........ is this truck going to be done this decade or no?

I hope so, once this suspension stuff is done I think it will come together even quicker.

I don't think so either, I'm really shocked how well I got it. It involved a 2x4 a jack stand holding it while I tacked it. :haha:

much much better.. looks good man..

Thank you, I agree mucho better. :thumb:
 
As I type this reply my song came on.



Seems a fitting reply to you Mitch, life is to short to give up and cave in.

Sense the new steering arm went on now my pan hard is a inch shorter then the drag link. :doah: Should I space the inserts out a little and turn the heims to make up for the inch?

That won't work, either I leave it, add a little material on the panhard bracket, or order up another bracket.
 
Run it. You can not make it perfect. There is not a truck out there with arms, coilovers and panhard bar that is perfect. There is always give and take.

Does this look right for a 4 inch and 33's?

Tires measure 31.5 tall
 
Looks almost perfect. I think if anything it might actually be slightly low still? I would measure from somewhere and ask someone with either a stock truck, or a 4" lift truck to measure theirs.
 
Don't really want to cut but I want the option to fit 35's some day. I think I should just run it at this height if It is close to a 4 inch and 33's "look"
