Well it is just the factory stuff. But it arrived today and it ready to replace the stuff I am going to surely damage or break on the AZ run.

Here it is as it sits next to my desk.

Very nice

I just did my centerlink and tie rods. Feels nice to have tight steering again...until this weekend. I wasn't going to put anymore money into the front end until the swap but needed to keep driving the Pathy until I could find another Daily driver.

Yeah, my centerlink is trashed, but I am going to take these with me on the Run and as soon as it gets unbearable or I bend a Tie rod, I'll replace it with the new ones.

I've got the necessary tools in my truck if we need to do it at camp.

So do I. I think my new steering has proved itself pretty well, have wheeled it HARD and have had zero problems.. but i'm still leary about it, so I may bring along the old centerlink still. Someone may need it.

Good to hear. Just one step closer to being READY!

Heck.. I'll even have the GIANT 1-5/8" wrench in the truck in case someone needs it.

And I have the monster crescent wrench that goes even bigger

And bolt cutters
And snap ring pliers
And bailing wire
