    Glad to see you're using actual CAD to cut with the Arch-Droid, Your time with GrindHard definitely worked out. Keep up the good work, your inspiring us all to get out there and try doing more fab work!

    assuming its out so far on driver side to make equal length as the drag link? Id consider getting a scrap of 3-4" tube with thick wall, notch the frame to match and weld in a half moon to plate it. and it gives a little channel for the tracbar to clear. Sorry "panhard" haha. killer progress

    awesome work man! its looking great 😍
    one idea to get around the frame would be to stick a small bend in the pan-hard bar where it would hit the frame. that way you still get the center-to-center pivot geometry that your looking for but the actual bar will clear the frame.

      That’s exactly what I was thinking. As long as the pan hard bar pivot points are the same distance apart as the tie rod ends, then it’s fine to have a bend or joggle in the pan hard bar. It’ll still have the same radius as the drag link

      @RyanGillespie-qd8vk yup, exactly.
      The only downside i can think of to having it with a bend is that it's not as convenient to adjust the length of it...

    I also fully boxed my frame side track bar mount. The first one ripped off. I would definitely suggest it. I can send you some pics if you need

    Awesome work! But i got a question. Instead a 3 link and panhard bar. Why you don't use a reverse 4 link? So you don't have to use a panhard bar

    • @DirtGarage
      @DirtGarage  10 місяців тому +1

      Because packaging and you would still need a pan hard. The steering has to follow a radius, without it you will get bump steer.

    I drilled and flipped my hi steer arms since they didn’t need to clear leaves anymore. Made the angles much easier to hit. Packing it all up front was a bear!

    Can't you make a pan hard bracket that drops it down a bit lower?

    • @DirtGarage
      @DirtGarage  10 місяців тому +2

      Yup. Thats why I need the pitman arm. So it can match the new lowered pan hard.

    What car did you install the front axle from? And the rear axle is still original or also from another car?

    • @DirtGarage

      Front is from 1982 Toyota Pickup. Rear is stock.

    notch your frame where the panhard bar hits. then just reinforce the frame in that area

      I may end up doing this too. But kinda useless to do so without trying to drop it first.

      You could also bend the pan hard to clear and leave everything as it is.

      Yes whatever works, there just might be clearance issue with the draglink and tie rod using a dropped arm when compressing the drivers side if the axle moves forward at all.
