Hmm, weird

Sweet

I emailed Derale about their instructions...well see what happens. Also, Redneck Ram didn send any tabs, but lucky I had some that I could repurpose. Thanks @Broski for some coaching

I remade my fluid reservoir bracket, not pretty but strong as sh*t! I also got the ram mounted up and just ket adjusting the steering stops until it fit.

I decided to call it for today and re-assess in the morning wiht a fresh mind. Fun fact, I had to grind down the tie rod as it was hitting the third member well before the steering stops.

I checked before I attached everything, this is what fully closed looks like.

Oh, and I caught on fire...

I'll adjust it back, but I backed it all the way off to make sure the ram was getting full range of motion

Bwahahaha....looks like a 3rd grader got a hold of the welder!

That looks different whats going to keep it from rotating ?

 

[Noahrob]

The the charcoal canister bracket right above it. Since they butt each other, there's no rotation to be had

OK I obviously don't know what that's for
