[QUOTE="jcarrick, post: 1366527, member: 17712"] The steering? Yes. Reaming out the knuckles and pitman arm is not to difficult, you just have to go slow and check fitment regularly. Time for a little update. The headgasket went out last month, 4 days before leaving for Mexico towing a big contractors trailer. I also had to work a 48 hour shift during those 4 days. Needless to say, I was hurting for time to get the gasket replaced. Everything went smoothly and I got a new OEM marine head gasket, my machinist said the head checked out ok, installed ARP 12mm head studs, put 50 miles of test drive on it, and headed to Mexico with fingers crossed. Luckily all went well and everything held together great! Since I don't feel like spending 60k on a new truck, I have decided to make this one exactly what I want. It already has more power and a nicer riding front end than any new, 1-ton truck on the market. Now that I have the truck ALMOST to where I want it mechanically, I'm starting to direct my focus to the creature comforts and amenities. I recently pulled out the carpet, installed Roadkill sound deadener to the floor and rear of the cab, installed Roadkill MLV/CCF pads, and new carpet. This greatly reduced the road noise and vibrations. Then I had the windows tinted, 20% on all the sides and 4% on the rear. Here's the current list of "creature comfort projects: -AC (currently working on adapting the factory 460 AC compressor and lines to work with the cummins) -EATC from a Super Duty -Super Duty steering wheel with cruise, stereo, and EATC controls -Keyless entry with keypad in door (no more taking my keys out of the ignition) -Auto-down drivers and front passenger windows -Sound deadener on doors, behind dash, and roof. Heres a quick pic of the truck with the windows tinted and hooked up to the new trailer: [ATTACH=full]163872[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
