Looks like passenger's side u-bolt needs some help too :flipoff2: Other than that, looks real nice. http://www.pirate4x4.com/ubb/icons/icon14.gif

Cut and splice steering gear = bad thing. Hope the passenger side spring plate and u bolt are on the fix it list. Nice angles tho.

Yes I already have the right passenger side spring plate (yet to put it on though). The steering is only a quick fix so I can drive it around, however I think it will be plenty strong (they were actually butt welded then we sleeved it as well). As for the drum brakes, no it has disks you must be seeing that thin ass dust shield or whatever it is.

HAve you flex it yet?
I dont know if its the picture or not but it looks like that draglink is going to hit the bottom pulley
Otherwise looks decent.

it doesnt look like it will hit the pulley but definatly WILL be real close to hitting the frame, look at the clearance between the frame/bumpstop and frame/draglink

Does that brake line rub on your tire at full turn?
Looks good though
mudpup,
Whose arms are those? Got price?

I have not had a chance to flex it yet, much less even drive it(been part of a axle swap and soa conversion as well). The only clearance issues I am worried about is with the frame, but I don't see it being to big of a deal.
Yes right now the brake line does rub on the tire, so I figure I will just ziptie it to the shock.
The arms are from Essentially Off-Road (www.essentiallyoffroad.com), they are great guys and just call and ask to talk to Rocky about the arms
