Why did you give up on the HP30? I haven't totally given up on the HP30 but I did get a LP30 with 4.10's already installed till I make up my mind. Kinda weighing the strength gain vs cost, thinking about a D44 or going all the way to a 60. I just don't know right now Rick

I believe he wants 150# for it. It's never been used as far as I know either.

OK so I've been tinkering away this winter and here are some update's. I started innocently enough, I'll replace some worn bushings, and heck why not shine her up a touch. I decided to paint my LA's yellow, mostly because I'm awesome and can get away with it Then I decided to open up my frame to clear all the 10 years of crap outta there Removed the fuel tank, what a lot of mud up here too! Added this so I'll never be broke. LMAO always have money for Tim's now!! Next I removed my HP30 and stripped it of it's brackets and RH knuckle. Good timing on the bracket removal LOL New to me knuckle. Thanks to Alan A. ;D Steerings not gonna work like this So that's a start, I'm currently working on the steering and waiting for the fawking machine shop to send back my trac bar.

Draglink is staying on the lower side for now, 15" wheels and 35's don't allow for enough room for the TRE. In the process of top siding the trac bar. I've got it all mocked up, just waiting on the machine shop to drill and tap it for a heim style end.

Ok so here's my steering set up. Trac bar to the top, double heim joints, F150 tie rod on the drag link. Had it out this weekend (no shimmy shock or swaybars) and handles great. Steering is very responsive and no bump steer or death wobble. F150 joints going in the tie rod bar at both knuckles (both will be flipped) going to connect em with a Justabuilt tie rod!
