well i finally got around to mounting mt trackbar OTA. i used a JKS bracket that i have had for a few months now. but being christmas break and all, I found the time to get it on. had my buddy steve weld it up for me, as i dont trust my welds for this type of stuff.

well here are the old steering angles:

and the new:

all we did was cut the ends off my RE HD trackbar and find some short tubing that fit inside that, which was hard because the RE HD bar is 1 3/8" x .188" wall chromoly. so we had a friend machine out the RE ends to 1". we slid in some 1" OD tubing, rosette welded them and sleeved them over with 1.25" DOM. so thats my new trackbar. well see how it does out in the desert soon. i also gained full lock to lock steering. my tie rod would hit the trackbar bolt in the stock location when i would turn right.
