Just another steering update now. Also got a lead on some 35s, going All Terrians just to keep road noise down. Planning on finishing out the exhaust from the bumper and need to put 4wd shifter in. Steering update below, working on tierod arms. Nearly able to keep them perfectly straight. Full steering lock to lock from full bump to droop.

Probably the angle of the pic, but it looks like the Ackerman is wack.

Just the .7 lense and caster at full bump. They'll maintain a correct angle. Both arms are perfectly mirrored and the same lever length.

So so so close now. Lost a little travel with the 35s but well needed. Steering is all in place just need a lot of bracing now.

Steering is almost done. A couple Misalignment spacers on back order and need to finish center link up.

Looks like the arms weren't moving exactly same. That's what the spacers are for?
