Re: 4x4 Power Steering

Re: 4x4 Power Steering
I guess this is what you are asking? you drag is adjustable. you cannot use the org one.

Re: 4x4 Power Steering
yes that is what i was asking and where did you find a new steering arm, I looked all over and couldnt find anything!!! See My body is a 67 c-10 but my frame is from another year because it has the closed knuckle with the dana rears and I cant tell what year it is but my guess is early 1960's?

Re: 4x4 Power Steering
The closed knuckle Dana 44 front differential was used thru at least '69.

Re: 4x4 Power Steering
Adding one more build to the 4x4 channel. I was inspired by the thought of re-machining the steering arm instead of cutting/welding. Ended up looking fairly sensible; I was able to keep the original angle and machine a flat for the nut to clamp against without losing any x-section where the load is applied.
Sorry pics are rotated 90° - Apple “thing.” |

Re: 4x4 Power Steering
Checking in to see if there any recent updates or suggestions for the shortened steering arm. Planning to add PS with original 64 K10 front axle. Is cut and weld preferred or milled and drilled, or other options? Thanks.

Re: 4x4 Power Steering
I would be curious to know if there are any "new" updates or suggestions for shortening the steering arm as well. I am really not keen on cutting the original arm, but I want to stay with the original axle and possibly have power steering.
I have also looked into doing an EPAS conversion with the original steering box, but not sure if that is a doable route either. Clay
