Today I managed to get the front suspension, brakes and steering mostly mocked up. Here is the rundown before I get into the problem.
-Speedtech UCA/LCA
-Ridetech tall dropped spindle
-OE steering arms and draglink
-Moog pitman arm and idler arm
-Lee 600 box
-Wilwood 12" Dynalite kit
-VWW V40 17" X 8" 4 7/8" BS, 235/45-17 tire
So problem #1 is the steering arm is entirely too close to the rim/tire as seen below. Too close to even get a tie-rod on. Thoughts? Ideas?
I was sorta kinda planning on switching to the Ridetech steering arms anyway via the Tru Turn kit. I think maybe the steering arms are different enough to correct this clearance issue?
However... I'm not sure the Tru Turn drag link attachment will clear the headers. I believe the driver's side will clear based on this pic.
The passenger's side I don't think so...
Anybody got any specs on the Tru Turn that might help me confirm if it will clear? I'm not sure I could bring myself to cut up that tube on these Lemons headers...
Thanks!
