Steering Wheel is a half turn off after disc brake conversion

[Big John Sny]

Was getting set up on the mill to machine the new locations and when I measured the locating holes on the shaft they are 17 mm (.6693"). I was thinking this was 5/8. Maybe on the older models (this front end is from a 85 suburban). I will have to order a metric end mill.
I probably should wait till I am able to remeasure the locating rivets on the cross-member.

Hmm. So the metric holes got me wondering. Does the 85 front end I used even need the Caster mod.
So when I look it up all I can find is this post on another site. Is this right? If the factor settings for an 85 suburban is really 8 degrees then I am more worried about the caster being too high. I should have measured caster before disassembly.

Ok, the numbers appear to be real. I probably should not be trying to relocate my control arms forward, Also, if you are after increased caster, it looks like the suburban parts are the way to go.
Guess it is time to put this front end back together.

Is the pitman on 45° off,
if I remember correctly there's 4 positions possible ?
Center the input shaft left to right then the pitman should be nearly straight to the rear or parallel with the rail.
