I knew he would eventually.Says the guy who ordered up the Delta arms.
Make the caps
Just plated over@Broski did you completely remove the factory ears or just plate over them? Im thinking of removing the entire ear and trying to squeeze a 1/4 plate between the frame and the re-enforcement.
Looks great Noah Nice work !!
The mount was pretty badly magled, looked like a "s" top to bottom and front to back. I trimmed it, heated it and then worked it over with a combination of hammer, crescent wrench and odd prying devices.
Finally, I used the plates I made and sandwiched the ear taking advantage of mucho foot pounds of torque in my impact wratchet and got it pretty straight.
I welded the brackets on and got things back together (mostly) so the truck could sit on its own weight again. Added the wheel spacers too for a bit wider stance and it looks like the beefier tie rod will clear just fine too.
I'll wrap everything up this week but so far so good. The only thing I don't like is that I had to get longer bolts for the radius arm in the back, I don't like only 1 thread showing, not safe. The issue is I could only source a 8.8 class in m18x100mm so I'll need to swap it out for a 10.9 class when I can
