Only trouble I have is when it flex's out my steering shaft pulls out of the orbital valve. It just got worse and worse, so we came home early.

Now for the pictures! ! ! ! ! ! :headbang:

Guess I should be more specific, as the frame flex's it slowly pushes the steering shaft into the column. Its all broke out now, Ill get a new column and fix the issue.:icon_welder:
 
Nice rig, you gotta lot of flex outta that. I like your open cockpit on the b2
 
Thank you for the extra explaination...I was gonna ask because I didn't see how flex with affect it!

Nice pictures BTW
 
I am going to weld up the stock shaft, so it wont move, and make a square tubing slip yolk inbetween the stocker and the orbital valve, so body flex and frame flex wont effect it at all.......
 
Sounds like a good plan...how much slip are you gonna make?

Its prolly about 1 to 1-1/2 inches. I put a spring in it also, so it always has a little tension pushing it into the orbital valve.

I also found I have left my body welded to the frame..... I temp welded it up so I could hold the core support still while I dovetailed it. Welllll, I forgot to cut it, so thats prolly allot of why it was acting funny.
