Now that I wont be running h1s I've decided its a good idea to go back to non-hi-steer and get rid of all the problems of being low ans smashing steering/trackbars into my crankshaft.
This also gives me a great opportunity to get rid of the sloppy ass heim joints that didn't hold up for shit and get some tie rod ends in there. I've been lookin around and looks like I have no choice but to go to an inverted t style steering unfortunately. In any case my creeps will be here tomorrow!!! On the flip side of that the only rims I have are some 6" wide steelies and i really dont think a 14.5 tire is gonna fit on there. I'm lookin for 8" wide steels off any 1 ton truck so keep your eyes peeled.
Tubing bender is gettin ordered tomorrow so maybe cage building by the weekend?
It has sweet box rockers now and some other things that are nice, i'll get a sweet update goin soon

The only reason you are going to TRE's is because you're garbage heims wore out? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't get it.Originally posted by DrThunder View PostNow that I wont be running h1s I've decided its a good idea to go back to non-hi-steer and get rid of all the problems of being low ans smashing steering/trackbars into my crankshaft.

Just wondering why.Originally posted by DrThunder View PostHeim joints suck. I'm goin to tre's cause now i have the opportunity to with new knuckles i'm gettin.
The heims Ruffstuff stocked were the same cheapo heims that Ballistic stocked, I forget the brand name. If you got a set of quality heims I don't think you would have that issue.
Edit: I'm pretty sure they were Midwest Control Product heims, I could be wrong though.Last edited by Even; 01-31-2010, 08:57 PM.

They looked nice and blingy but they didn't last for shit, Theres no way to lubricate them easily and keep the water out so naturally they aren't going to be as good as a tie rod end. I drive the truck when I can and will be driving it a lot more when the death wobble issues are gone so I need parts that last longer.Originally posted by Even View PostJust wondering why.
