When I originally sleeved the tie rid made it too long. Cut it off and retapped. Had access to right hand tap 7/8 18 thread tap

Why the beefy pitman arm if you are going hydro assist?

Because I am an idiot and often overdue things. After running the reamer the bell looked pretty thin, but the pitman arm is the length I needed. If I would have had a second opinion I wouldnt have done it. It sucks working alone because there is no end to my bad ideas.

I still have lots of trimming to do
