Its doable if you use the original drag link/steering bar. Next thing I was going to look into was making a steering idler as they don't last long either. If I'm honest the only reason I haven't started is because its steering components. It scares me. If something went wrong it would be catastrophic and id be to blame if I supplied it.

Yeah send them whenever mate. I'll need them to convert the tapered holes in your hubs etc to straight holes anyway.

did u do the upright needles too mm


The O/S bearings inc the upright was a right off, I suspected the needles had gone but the mechanic reckoned just the outer bearing on the N/S fell apart when he stripped it, again no noise from it as non had seized up it was just the cage that broke up when he took the hub off @123hotchef
