    Hey guys,

    Just got the truck home (roads covered in sleet/slush, bout S&#t a brick when the back slid on me, but had to get it home).

    The arms are installed and look great. Only 1 small problem, the top drivers side arm is rubbing on the top of the steering shaft and its stiff to turn, needs to be modified or make a new shaft that sits a little higher.

    The only pics I have is of the install, weather is bad, I know its useless with out pics but the new 87 painted (exchanged the chrome) one bumper is installed, needs a new back fill plate piece and new 87 turn signals units and my shifter is shortened 3", shifts really nice from what time I had to enjoy it.

    Anyway, please let me know what you think and I will put updated pics up as soon as I am able to.
    Pete

    Double check all your clearances ,as in the photo with the bag collapsed ,looks like the upper ball joint cup is hitting the bag!
    If so will be a problem.
    Just what I see in the photo!:cool:
