Ok got most of the boxing done to where I wanted it’s not 100% but I think it’ll help a lot . 
Also ran into my my first issue . I was planning on using WFO high steer arms but I don’t think I’ll be able to . The axel is landing in not the best location gonna run into the frame and crossmember pretty quick .
the crossmember is no biggie I can make something different or whatever but the frame is a issue !
Going to run Artec arms?
I think I’m going to haft too honestly ,wanna buy these lol
I assume theres something preventing you from running the heim under the arm?
No , I could I still don’t think it’ll be enough clearance even with a tall misalignment spacer. I think I’ll only get 1.500 more .
Does the steering arm hole lineup withe knuckle steering hole? You're a machinist, make some billet spacers moving it down like the artec setup.
A quick eyeball check last night made me think no but I’d haft to really look at it to say no 100%
that’s a bummer.
called Artec and ordered their setup now I can be super fancy .
The article ones are solid! I need those orange knuckles!
Sounds like it's time to chop the frame too!

No ,I don’t want to but the thought did cross my mind lol
More up travel and keep it low! Haha
I’d also like to add the person at Artec I talked to was being kind of rude I wasn’t sure on a few things made me feel like I was bugging them with my questions. I also made a mistake on giving them the wrong email Address. They made sure to point out it was my fault and how they confirmed it with me . I wasn’t blaming them I just wanted my invoice.
business must be good for them.
Guess so
I hate when you get some slug that gives a company a bad name. I had a bad experience with a guy from Yukon. Total dick. I sent an email to their customer service dept and made a stink. The head of the dept called me and apologized. I had the 2 dollar part I needed the next day. No Charge...
Got this ol’girl in and man it looks nice almost too nice to be a crawler lol . Gonna check some clearances but I think everything’s at home now with the Artec arms I’ll be able to put my hydraulic cylinder where ever I want .
