Re: Crossover steering question

The death wobble was because my u-bolts on the axle were extremely loose. I tightened them up and it hasn't done it since

Re: Crossover steering question

id try and avoid contact by changing the shape of the draglink.

on a 60 it has four holes, in a square pattern. a dana 44 has three holes in a banana lookin pattern lol.

the shorter side tends to go in the knuckle, and it pretty much will only fit one way.

Re: Crossover steering question

Ord has two different steering arms one is for a dana 44 knuckle the other is for a reid racing dana 44 replacement knuckle huh lol....

The threads are the same on both ends of the stud, so it will go in both ways, if you put the long side down the spacer won't fit , if you put the shorter threads in the knuckle the spacer will fit.
