    Steering wheel doesn't return from either direction

    Thanks for all the tips here everyone. I completed this a week or so ago but just now getting a chance to make a couple posts. I opted to go with ORDs crossover system. I chose to stay with current drag link location because I didn't want to add the cross member at this moment so went for the...

    Complete steering replacement on my K30

    Lookin good! Mine ended up being super tight after install And no return To center on the way to the alignment shop. But after the alignment it turns much easier and returned to sender perfectly. Nothing major needed just basic alignment adjustments. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How much is this M1028 worth?

    Thanks for the input guys. Sorry I’ve been away for a while tied up with work and haven’t really been on the forum. I believe as it sits I could get 7 to 8 for it but I’ve decided to keep it and just keep throwing money at it! LOL. Fixes all problems right! LOL. I can see how a lot of people...

    How much is this M1028 worth?

    Hey all. Feel like I’ve made a bad decision with this purchase and lookin to see what people think this might be worth? I paid 7800 which was too much I believe and have just been pouring money into it and may have hit a stopping point. Curious what you guys think something like this is worth...

    Complete steering replacement on my K30

    I definitely understand wanting to keep an unadulterated system! Mine was going to be a tracker pull truck but never made it to a race and I’m taking it down a more practical route. I did just go with the Jeep steering shaft but haven’t driven it on the street yet. Installed yesterday the...

    Complete steering replacement on my K30

    Awesome, I may take a trip to the junk yard to try that first since it looks to be an easy swap. What years work for the XJ shafts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Complete steering replacement on my K30

    Interested in the steering shaft upgrade, I was thinking of getting a steering shaft from an XJ at a junk yard. What are your thoughts on that vs the new linkage you got? Does this bolt onto your existing steering shaft? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gas tank sending unit connection??

    Thanks DeadParrot, the EC103 looks like it could work. I did end up rigging something together to get it installed last night. If I get some issues i'll probably try sliding the bed back to access, was a pain getting it up there.

    Gas tank sending unit connection??

    I’m trying to install a new gas tank but the sending unit power connection has this single pole where I would have expected a threaded bolt to be so that I can screw on a but to connect. Any tips??? Here is the old one, I have a fuel cell in it now and converting to regular gas tank...

    Lift kit for M1009

    I’m in newbie so don’t take my advice as gospel but I just bought a M1028 and have steering issues myself that working through. I hear the dual stabilizer can help but is generally thought of as a Band-Aid on other problems. The first alignment shop I took it to said the tie rod ends and drag...

    Steering wheel doesn't return from either direction

    Yeah I like that setup! Let me know if you change your mind. I live in nashville and come to KY all the time for work. In Evansville, IN today actually. Are there any clubs our group meetings in the area? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Steering wheel doesn't return from either direction

    @sharecropper - saw your post on the NDT Wheels a little while ago, those actually look pretty cool. Do you have any tires for them also or have recommendations for tires? do these need spacers? if not I'm super interested! appreciate the feedback on the spacers all. ha, i really didn't think...

    Steering wheel doesn't return from either direction

    Glockfan, I’m hoping to get my setup to look as clean as yours sometime! Already ordered crossover kit so I’m good there. I’ve got 6” skyjacker lift on mine and the block was a bit loose, tightened that yesterday and it helped a bit with the steering. I think if I get all the other stuff...

    Steering wheel doesn't return from either direction

    Thanks guys! Your builds look great! I just ordered a PSC ported steering gear, crossover steering gear, steering gear brace kit, & new heavy duty tie rod. I’ll get the poly bushings too, I’m close to Murfreesboro so hope I can just swing by and pick em up next week. Feeling Broke!!! Chaski ...

    Steering wheel doesn't return from either direction

    I'll look into the ORD options. I'm thinking about going with a 2 wheel steering gear that has been ported that could allow full hydro upgrade later if I want to add that. Hydro is just a large extra cost that i'd prefer to use with other updates over the next couple of months first then...

    Also, looks like around 400-500 cost for parts on these, what do you think install would cost?
