I hope this problem I have had and my solution can help somebody else in any way

 

That looks like it will work just fine. Think I would throw some paint on the bare metal parts, so you will be able to tell if it is getting scrubbed off.

 

Yea I'm gonna tomorrow I gotta buy a can of primer first, but if I didn't they wouldn't rust any worse that the rest of the truck LMAO

And thanks for saying it looks like it'll work just fine, I'm just happy they clear

 

Oh come on.... Rust isn't a problem on these trucks........

 

Nope they have no problem rusting I gotta do something with the hood and the top before it's a hoodless convertable


After heati g remivi g and antiseizing thd tierod you should see how easy they turn, straightening the wheels shouldn't be a problem, I was only able to get one set of two, of the universal tierod dust boots the other set for the other side I'll pick up this afternoon., put the other tie rod back on grease the whole thing (again) and start on straightening the wheels out

 

Y'all are gonna love this, Friday I took it to Colony Tire in Ahoskie for an alignment, (before I started the alignment thread and got the downloads) anyway they couldn't do the alignment because the Pittman was flopping around and a nut on the tire rod just turns, well, COLONY TIRE IN AHOSKIE REMOVED THE SPACER WASHER FROM MY TRUCK!!!!!!!!!!!, I'm assuming so they wouldn't have to align a old vehicle that they probably don't have the combined iq power to figure out, but THAT IS WHY I DO ALL MY OWN WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!
if I cant fix it I sell it
DO NOT go to Colony Tire in Ahoskie, the others might be ok but a mechanic at the Ahoskie one sucks
