Re: Papa's 67 step side (aka ANOTHER porterbuilt prison)

two question i have about the above pics for you guys

1. does the steering linkage need support how its set up in pic?

2. does the steering column look to far out? (if i adjust it in the steering linkage would hit the a- arm when air was out)

Personally I don't think you need any extra support and I thing your column looks to be in a good position.

I just found this build, quickly went through it and I'm liking what I see. I hope you're still at it.
