About the only good flex shot so far. This is from Interlake today. Will try to find a good spot tomorrow if I have time.

After off-roading yesterday, its has been very difficult to keep my truck on the road and I knew I still had some camber issues. I thought I might have knocked something out of spec or damaged something. I took it in to have an alignment and they told me that all 4 ball joints were bad. So I picked up a set and I am in the process of replacing them.

 

[disciplerocks]

Ball joints, wheel bearings, and 3 degree camber bushings installed.

how does it drive now?

 

[disciplerocks]

Better, but I still have a tie rod to replace too. Drivers side caliper locked up on my way home today. Ug, its always something.

Thats what I get for a u-pull axle. At least my D28 calipers are still sitting here.

and the fabbing begins. what kind of welder did you get?

 

[disciplerocks]

Cheeeeeeaaaaap lol. Its a Harbor Freight flux core. Worked surprisingly well for the price.

 

[B2Guy]

well your not building no space shuttle. your first welder doesnt have to be an 800 dollar or up welder. although it would be nice!!!

 

[disciplerocks]

It would be nice to have a gas welder, but its just not possible.

Looks good! Keep it up

Sliders are nice to have, I just put them on my truck and already enjoy having them.
