ok, so i made a brace to support the center link from twisting and making my wheels shake but i'd rather have a new pitman arm and idler arm w/o the balljoint. i personally don't see a need for it b/c the centerlink isn't supposed to pivot or twist, just travel left to right. i was talking to Idaho Rob the other day and he said that he had one maid w/o the balljoint.

just wondering if anyone else has done this and if they have any pics.

thanks
kyle

yea i saw the one PPE has, i'm waiting on a cost one it though. probably gonna be a million dollars, but if it fixes the problem completely it's worth it.

exactaly.

i just spoke to dan and he said that you can either do the HD idler pitman arm combo on the stock center link or the HD center link. not both together. the HD kit just has a heim joint pressed into it.

maybe i'll see if i can get a straight piece of 304 and machine a few flat spots and threads in the end of it. i have another piman arm as well that i'm gonna try have have a bushing and bolt made for. we'll see what happens.
