Where did he get that high steer arm?
Where did he get that high steer arm?
Whats going on where the pass. side tie rod mounts to th knuckle?
And those high steer arm bolts look tiny.

I think what looks weird is the stock drag link end just sitting there doing nothing. That's my guess

Eventually i plan to Have Custom Fab machine my knuckles and plasma cut out arms.
Is everyone screwing with me? I don't see any pics.

I just watched a spider dominate a fly on the wall outside, i thought would would travis do? and i did the opposite, spider lives!
Not sure why the pics weren't showing up earlier.
As for those bolts I agree with JB. They look like 3/8" bolts or something. Also, is the fact that they are bolts not freaking anyone else out? Bolts don't have near the shearing strength that appropriate grade studs would have. I would def. model them after every other high steer manufacturer and OEM application and use studs with cones to prevent the holes from wallering out.
you mean tensile strength? shearing resistance? Are you sure they are that different, or is it more an issue of thread and clamping strength?

you dont need cones for the studs, i have never seen a kingpin 60 arm use the cones, but the arm in the pics does look a little suspect
Yes thank you. Tensile strength/resistance to shearing.
The almighty internet says that for size 9/16", a stud = 220,000 psi tensile strength, grade 5 bolt = 120,000 psi, grade 8 bolt = 150,000 psi
Picked up the rear today. Got it with shocks and springs for $200
The Beginning of the end.
Way to go Tommy! Good Luck.
It's only the beginning of the end if you let yourself think it is.

Nice, Hopefully having it sitting at Travis' will make you get it done quick. What is your planned time frame to get it on the trail again?
