    Probably already answered but how much does you axle walk the way your panhards set up? If any?

    About 1" or so of lateral shift. The longer the panhard the less movement you get.

    Thanks man.

    One more thing.

    Thought they had steer arms that could put tie rod in double shear using stock knuckle cast arm, why the welded plate?

    Also, ackerman angle?

    This. Plus the Artec ones and ballistic ones are based on Reid knuckles which have the tie-rod in the chevy knuckle location.

    Anyone interested in a spare PS pump? Mine is coming off in another week or so. I am upgrading to the 1650 psi, 4.5 gpm Trail-Gear full hydro PS pump :D


    Still works fine, no leaks, would stay on the truck indefinitely if I didn't go bigger, $65 shipped to your door CONUS

    I wish somebody would come up with a rack and pump upgrade for the 2nd gens. Would be nice. My power steering pump isn't super happy...

    I can turn but I have had my power steering pump squeal on me occasionally... I blame the front locker mostly. haha

    I remember those days lol


    Factory pump not modded, went with a TG full hydro pump (1650 psi, 4.5 gpm)


    Some one should try the TG hydro assist (1450 psi, 4.5 gpm) and see if the rack does ok. Once I get my pump installed I will be able to make another bracket if anyone wants to give it a try?


    Speaking of brackets...
