Sounds like you have Dwight down there helping you out. Smile


I expect you should just be finishing up by the Nov run.

Spooled the rope on the winch and installed the wireless remote.

Installed warflares. Still have to trim body a bit.

Finished hooking up my led headlights.

Think I have the steering issue fixed. Been driving it just about everywhere. Put a few hundred miles on it the last couple weeks. No death wobble. Then established some clutch chatter so had to adjust the clutch. All good for now we will see
If you can't fix it with a hammer and a welder then your gonna need a new one!

Apparantly the nut was bottoming out on the tie rod before it would pull it far enough through the pitman arm. I added a washer on top of pitman arm and tightened it down. Ended all play

Good work. Are there threads protruding beyond or even to the end of the nut? I would hate to see it come loose. Maybe a lock washer instead of a flat washer would be a safer bet obviously if you haven't done so already.
