Thread gone?

What happened to the thread about steering stops ? Wanted to see other ideas.

That is weird... it's totally gone! I can't find it either...

I did make a suggestion NOT to buy Speedways stops and to just use old tall chrome lug nuts from old deep mag wheels. Hope I didn't cause anyone loss of a sale??

I didn't see the thread in the first place, so I'm completely lost. (which isn't all that unusual for me)

On Ford spindles, set the king pin key with the stock nut and washer, then you can add washers for a little more lenght or go to a lug nut if you need more. I have also seen the contact spot on the spindle shimmed up with a piece of roud stock tig welded to it.

They were asking about aftermarket axles with just the little 1/4" set screw to hold the kingpin in place. Got any ideas on a steering stop for those??

 

[Youngster]

Most ofthe ones I've seen don't have them. I'm thinking a small triangle welded to the back side of the king pin boss might work. I'll check it out tomorrow.

I stopped at a friends house today after work to check out his Car. It has a MAS tube axle under it. I don't think it would be aproblem adding a stop to the king pin boss on the axle. A well shaped piece of 1/4" would probably do the trick.
