Ron, Do you have any pics of this steering arm? How did you arrive at the proper location for tie rod end? Did you just lower it 3/4" to account for the drop? I know wheel sizes are in here some where, but did it all package inside an 18" wheel without issue?

......and we need an update.

Hey Donnie! I'm outta town and will hunt up or take some pics for you next week.

Exactly. Put in the same location as the original and accounted for the higher mount points on the spindle. AME places the rod ends a little forward of the rack centerline to improve Ackerman. I have not tested for any bumpsteer yet but I will soon.

I know wheel sizes are in here some where, but did it all package inside an 18" wheel without issue?

Yep. Same location created no new issues.

......and we need an update.

Thx for asking Bro. I'm heading down next Friday with glass and body panels. The rollbar and other little bits should've been painted, and the dash will get finish wired. The punchlist is about 10 items long, not including one more fab item we'll get to after interior. Oh, and it's time to mount the seats. Matt's gonna be my body double...

Plus isn't there a cut-off date on this site for cars that old?
