68 C10 Binding Issue 5.5/7.5 drop, help please
the attached pics from my build thread show the binding on the driver side and the passenger side looks the same in the pic but has no issues, the steering box is a power one from a 70 and from my reading shouldn't be a problem, I can get more pics if needed but I'm unsure what I did wrong here, thanks for any input

Binding usually means the drag/center link is instaled incorrectly. Try flipping it's position.

Re: 68 C10 Binding Issue 5.5/7.5 drop, help please
looked for pics online and it seems to be correct? the ends are tapered so I can't see how it can be any different, possiblky the pitman arm needs to be tightened more but it's really binding at this point? heres a few more pics, blurry but give the point and more angles

That centerlink looks like it's bent to me in those pics. Is it one you utilized before the drop?

Could just be me, but I've never seen a center link with a big sexy bend in it like that one. You may need to get a straight one.

Pre drop I meant, usually my trucks go the other way
