it would probably be fine if I wanted to go up 2 or 3 more inches, but I don't and I have very little clearance at my oil pan and filter (2.6) right now.

I just drilled mine out and have been using heims on it. This isn't the tightest steering, but it has been my daily driver like that for 4 years now and is going to be a trailer queen from here out, so no plans on changing it.

I don't have any pictures but i did just buy a digital camera so i will try to get some pictures i just don't know when,i am heading out of town and won't be back till wensday so i will see what i can do. My springs are sua and i have a high steer arm on the right knuckle so my steering linkage runs almost parallel,so there is no binding at all. Don

Looks good, but does it need that big of a kick-stand?

haha yeah that's what will become my rear driveshaft. I think it's about 3/16" wall and about 2 3/4" OD. should hold up.

Dropped my parts with Matt on Friday, and I should get them before the weekend so I'm going to be able to get a lot done, as long as my bud finishes up the rear driveshaft. Plans are to hit the trail early next month for a shakedown run! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Installed my re-reamed pitman w/ the chevy tre back onto the box and into the drag link. now I have interference w/ my u-bolt nuts. After I remix the spring packs it will be better, but I will have to come up with something. I might have to move the axle back an inch after all because the DL comes really close to the diff when its turned.

Got my rear driveshaft
