My truck has a little down time while I wait for some DOM for my driveshaft. I decided to redo my tie rod hydro steer mount.
Old welded on mount
I made this new one while at work.

Its also nice to have a mill, a lathe, and a good welder on hand. Oh yeah and plenty of 308 stock.
beautiful, looks familiar... Im sad I cant re-use mine with the new stuff.

definately more bling factor . . . nice job
I tried using the big 'ol Cadillac lathe in the garage at corporate last month, but gave up after everyone told me it hasn't run since '00. I couldn't even get it to turn on . . .

To tell the truth, I was recently in touch with Ballistic in Arizona, and they sell the one I copied. They make the clamp out of cold roll and I wanted stainless. I then made it and welded the tabs on. There has been plenty of talk about this on another site, so I had lots of ideas to work from.Originally Posted by Mossyrocks
Get that lathe runnin cuz there is so much to do and you would be amazed at how much monry you can save. Once apon a time I did tool and die work, and I miss toolin around.Originally Posted by corax
Yea, I had seen a few on pirate when I did mine. Thats where I got the idea from. The stainless is a nice touch though.

Stainless is nice, I was skeptic cause of work hardening, but for the application I think there will be no problems with 308. If I had a CNC I would pump these guys out for everyone, but manual is just not worth it.
