Long Travel BS Thread

Yea. Just thinking about it. Each spline may equate to 12-18 deg on the steering wheel. Not sure the exact amount of splines on the rack . I'll re adjust the location on the rack.

 

Install all finished and got my alignment where i want it, for now at least.

 

Anyone worked with 1" tube? What's the easiest way to bend it or similar sizes?

 

Do you have a tubing bender? They make dies for all sizes and you will net the best results from using a proper tube bender.

 

Now jump it until you brake it.

 

No, I might be able to find one to use if it's required. Don't know anyone with 1" dies though. Didn't know if a bender would be required.

 

What wall thickness are you planning on using? And what are you building? If it’s thin enough and bend quality isn’t as important then maybe you could use a conduit bender. But regardless, you’ll need some sort of bending tool

 

Still working on the details. Regardless my OCD won't be content with shitty bends so I'll need to find a bender.

 

That size die will be cheap in comparison to bigger ones. Find someone that has a bender and see if they’ll split the cost of the die with you.

 

Somebody said bender? Mine is still in the warehouse waiting for me to pay for it. Lmfao

 

Mine is still in the box sitting on the shelf

 

i prefer to gas through the jumps.

 

So my dumbass measured the wrong Spot on the rack when trying to center the Rams. The steering wheel coupler was definitely off. Just adjusted it and now I can actually drive it to the alignment place. I think the wheel is off by one spline now. We will see where the wheel sits after the alignment.

 

Ok break the tranny then. Lmfao

 

Pathetic. Lmfao

 

you can come use my 1" die and bender if you need to.

 

Didn't know you had a bender but I appreciate it!

 

Depending on what you're doing pie-cuts and welding is an option too.

 

i have the normal shit in my garage, bender, welders, press, mill, metal lathe, bla bla bla lol "normal"

 

I have changed mine a bunch of times and just use pliers, works every time with no slip.
