Scotts Hot Rod c10 IFS on Squarebody?
 
Has anyone installed one? I have mine almost all the way in but I can figure out steering.. There is nothing in their instructions on steering.. They send you 3 joints, and a hiem and a bung. When you call they direct you to a picture on their website that isn't even the same cross member and motor mount set up.. I am totally lost.. The issue now is I was told to follow the picture and I have drilled a hole in my frame that wont work..

Anyone have any pictures of there installs? I have a 84 GMC 1500 truck with a 6.0 LS motor in it..

Yes.. as I commented above they keep telling me to look at the picture.. This picture is all kinds of wrong for the set up I have.. It is a longer rod or appears to be.. You cant see the heim, and 3rd joint. Also the way IFS mounts up to the mount appears to be different.. It doesn't show you have to set up steering for my application.

It sounds like the steering shaft kit is a universal kit so it covers everything in one single kit.Mock up everything and figure out how your going to have to run it and build it.If your lucky you get a straight shot and only need to cut down the shaft and run 2 joints.The 3rd joint and heim are extra in case you need to move the steering out of the way for headers.
