Project Hot Dog, Part 3
With the axle moved forward, the draglink came close to the front pinion flange (we still need to have the yoke machined for clearance during articulation). Using heavy-wall DOM tubing and 3/16-inch steel plate we built this raised double-sheer mount on the steering arm to house a Poly Performance 3/4-inch rod end with 5/8-inch misalignment spacers. This assembly allows just less than 30 degrees of misalignment one way and a huge 5/8-inch bolt that keeps it all together. The axle end of the draglink requires a joint that allows more movement than the one at the pitman arm. View Related Article
