Drag Link Clearance - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

DaddyOh · 06-03-2016, 06:02 PM

Doing some changes on a 65 and was wondering about drag link clearance issues. After mocking everything up... and placing steering (pitman arm) in a fore/aft neutral position, the drag link clears the crossmember by 1/16" +/-. Once steering is initiated, the pitman and idler arm move, causing drag link to move away from crossmember. Since I do not have anything to compare to, what is the center/neutral clearance of the drag link on these things?

Thanks for any info
