Re: These tubular arms for stock shaft

those are for a 73-87 trucks but would look killer on the 67-72s but they should clear because u can see were the notch is in the arms for the steerin arm

The arms are the same regardless of whether they are 67-72 or 73-87. They do look pretty sweet

Re: These tubular arms for stock shaft

1LoC10, where did you find those pics? I've looked all over their site and found nothing on those arms. It looks like they z'd the frame or did a stock floor body drop, but either of those should move the steering box up in relation to the cab, which would not leave a straight shot from the bottom of the column to the steering box. Any more info on what they did to that truck?

Re: These tubular arms for stock shaft

Those look good but I noticed one thing. Did they use DOM tubing for the arms?

What if it's not DOM tubing?
Even if it wasn't, it should still be stronger vs. the stamped factory arms right? What do you guys think?

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.

The thing with factory stamped parts is it's high carbon steel which is stronger than mild steel. With DOM you don't have a seam that can split under stress.

Jr do you see an electricweld seam that I don't? You would think they're DOM or maybe even solid by the way the one side bent (no deformity). Looks like a good idea.

Now I see it... I think the new black background made it jump out at me in the last pic!
