I checked things out it looks like the upper steering rod will contact the cross rod so I think I need to move my steering box forward a hair so it will clear.

I got the 85 front D/S but it turns out it is way too short. Right now I need a front Driveshaft that is 29 1/4" long for the front.
I have a spare rear driveshaft that I will be using as parts to make the current one longer.

I played around a little last night took a few pics





Right now shock compression is preventing the springs from traveling any further on the passengers side.
I will have to address what I am going to do on this with either different shocks or moving the mount.
Right now it's as high as I could place it without cutting the wheel well..
I am running rancho 5012's but I might have to get a shorter shock for my setup.



The rear springs don't flex nearly as well as the front.
So I might goto chevy rear springs. The rear springs are some procomp 4" springs.

Well I got the front D/S back from my buddy he tried his best but it is out of round and has a big wobble to it...
I guess I am going to have it re-tubed professionally....
