Got her turning......finally.

I finally got my truck turning the wheels fully right to left with the 1 1/4 sectioned crossmember and all the stock steering stuff. Just need to link up the column to the box.......... On to the next project...

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Got her turning......finally.

OK my camera died so it took me alittle while to get a new one but here are the pics....... 1`st pic is of the section... the rest are the steering crap. I know it looks like i ground down the u-bolt pretty good but I just took the crown off it I would like to go another way with it like a shorter nut should have the new u-bolts sometime this week...
