JPOR: Spring over steering



Ok with all this talk about front axles it's gota lead to this.  Spring over steering

  Question one:  Does anyone have the web sites that sell the spring over arms?  I have searched parts mike and can't find anything.  Any web sites would be nice!

  Question two:  How do you make your own?  Key point is how do you make the hole for the drag ling and the three bolts that hold on the arm (Chevy style)?  I would guess that you need a tapered drill bit and a tapered reamer, however if the two are a different size that's a lot of money on drill bits and reamers!

  Question three: Any write-ups on this?  I have read John's nice article (even know the machinist) but would like to find an article with the Chevy arms installed.  

  Question four:  Is there a difference between the Ford, Jeep and Chevy tie rods?  I have seen 7-8 degrees but can't find out much else.  Also, never ask this to a young parts guy, they just look at you.

  Side note:  I saw a chrome high steering arm two weeks ago in Farmington, MN.  I can't believe anyone would do that.
