Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
No, this thread hasn't moved in long time! I've been working like crazy for the last year or so. 6-7 days a week and raising kids. I also have another project that I'm about a month from finishing. After that I'll be back. I've been lurking and trying to keep up on other builds, but have had no time for my own. Dammit. Back soon!

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Is your truck still on hold due to work, life and kids? Don't work yourself to death, take a vacation and work on this thing already...LOL.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Been working on the steering linkage to the rack. I have a u-joint on the way and some double d steering shaft. When I put it together I'll take some picks and get this tread rollin again.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Here it is, an actual update. I ordered a u-joint and some double d shaft, then went to cutting. I need to do a little research on welding dissimilar metals. I'm trying to tig the stainless u-joint to the mild steel steering shaft. I know I need to get some straight argon, but I'm trying to figure out the best filler metal to use. I'm at 309L at the moment but need to call my brother to confirm. I need to fill the first hole in the frame that I cut and then realized the shafts wouldn't mate up. The instructions from No Limit for the rack didn't exactly work for me. More to come, hopefully it doesn't take me another year.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
I might be wrong but I think 309 is the correct rod. An 'ol timer taught me "odd number when welding odd (dissimilar) metals." That's what I've always went off of.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
I would also go with 309L and straight Argon.
