Bump steering
Ok first I want to say It was great meeting Smitty this past week on the HRPT in Norwalk! Fantastic truck to!
I don't want a full on road course truck but I want it to handle good on the road. The HRPT took it's toll on the front end of the 71 and I'm looking to replace the tie rods and such on it. Does anyone know of any kits other than this one that elimnates the tie rod sleeve. I want a solid adjustable one. They both are loose on the truck after all the dang craters on the roads around Chicago! Running 70MPH and hitting some of the craters in the highway was like hitting a sink hole. http://www.hotchkis.net/tie-rod-sleeves2.html

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. |
