Here's some old pics I took a few days ago, tomorrow I can get some closer up pics of it

Got the radiator in, only thing is I had to lower it a little bit so the hood can clear the cap on top

It's at the very beginning (2nd picture), after taking the wheel off, I believe it's because I didn't align the pitmen arm correctly Edit: the pitmen arm was on the wrong side

Alright, so I'm almost finished with this power steering kit, but ran into one problem. My tire is rubbing against the pitmen arm on just a small right turn does anyone know the solution to this or is this kit even usable with the NDT tires? Yes, I have super single tires and MRAP rims but...

A little off topic but are you mounting the 16.00 XZL with the rim on your 5 ton? If so, are you using some kind of equipment or is you going to just push it on the studs?

Nicee, that's what I had thought, I haven't separated them yet but that's my plan before I move them again. With the rim out, it shouldn't be any issue moving them it seems

https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/NBH7695 Just found this on napa locally, it has an inside diameter of 1.75 inch inside. I'm going to get this since it seems fairly long. I can just cut what is too long

The elbow you had was too short? I kind of connected things together and notice the two elbows I had seem pretty short to fit, but I haven't mounted my radiator just yet

Okay, got a few questions, what size hose are you going with? The fitting on the GMC radiator seems to be a bit smaller, are you still going with the 2inch hose and just going to tighten the clamps? Also, how many inches does the radiator sit above the bottom mount? Those are the 2inch L...

I was about to say the same, and is there any transmission that's close to the same size as the 3053 that would have a better overdrive? I was thinking of the Eaton 11605A but they're hard to find and I'm not even sure what's the size of it

I'm taking on the same project as well when I get my fender back on

The thing though, I don't see how an aluminum radiator can increase or start electrolysis

Yea I saw that, never heard of that either, seems made up to me

Probably is, I got this one https://www.ebay.com/itm/152602332919 I'm still waiting on it

Ok, I know this not on the drag link/pitmen arm topic, but still just an update on this project. I now have the steering box, steering wheel, and steering box mount bracket off. It took a lot of drilling and cutting but its out. For the radiator, I'm going with a different radiator, my plan is...

Well, it got worst, I went start cutting the radiator for the power steering pump to fit, and just as you thought, I bust the radiator.

Yep, been on that for almost a week, seems like the hardest part of this project is going to be taking stuff off

Finally got the steering arm, used some ATF, hit, and beat it with a hammer, now I got something else stuck, the steering wheel. I tried using a gear puller and it didn't work so next I tried a ratchet strap and that didn't work, plus it got stuck. My next plan is to try and get a puller that...

Going to try and yep I didn't take the washers off. I'll report back tomorrow how it goes.

Yep and right, would you think putting a scissor jack from the axle to the arm be better or a hammer?
