Slowly but surely my friend. The goal is thrashing it at CTW 2020. GOALNice to see it coming together.
Thanks, yeah that has been considered, I had no choice on my 40. Ideally I'd like to keep them straight, not to mention that the 2.25" diameter 3/8" wall stuff would be a real chore to bend. The panhard is certainly going to get a bit of bend to help it clear the diff, with the aftermarket diff cover installed, it's simply going to be way too tight.Looking great. You could put a slight bend in the front links for tire clearance and turning radius?
The steering arms from NWF are pretty short. I'm betting they'd gain you some room.Here’s the upper panhard mount. I may push it outboard a bit or bend the link just slightly to help clear the D60. It’ll run a shorter pitman arm for sure

This is only 8.5” total between them and represents $25.87 in waste, sheesh

Yeah, I think I've looked at all of them now and NWF was at the top of the list for quality. The issue is the lower panhard mount/shock mount and the frame. I'd love to use them but I think it would limit the steering stop too much as the high steer arm would interfere with the panhard and shock mount. The plan is to run a 7075 drag link so we shouldn't bend it, hopefully. I plan to run a high steer arm only on the driver side to function as a hydro ram mount. There's way more room over there.The steering arms from NWF are pretty short. I'm betting they'd gain you some room.
