You guys have to check this out!

I had Ron (RPM) build me a new Axle, Radius Rod Brackets, Radius Rods, and Tie Rod for me... Just got it back from the chrome shop... You have to see how much more stout everything is!

Look at the difference on the front axles... The one Ron built is on top:

Now look at these Radius Rods... Again Big Beefy boys on top are from Ron...

As a side note... Thought you might be interested in these... Instead of the usual bushings... I ran Royal Needle bearings (one pair on both upper and lower spindle mounts) with stainless steel kingpin... this setup is butter! You can see the casing of the upper bearing around the kingpin.

Man... look at that axle... I think he built me a axle-bumper combo!

I'll update with a post when I get it all mounted up... :lol:

Very impressive front end. With the abuse these things take heavier is better. I've considered those needle bearing kingpin setups.......gonna have to try them next time I replace my kingpins.

Looks good in the chrome too.

Almost forgot one really cool detail

I really liked where Ron put the king pin locking pin (bolt). Usually it's behind the axle and can be seen, but as you can see, it's behind the spindle so when wheels are pointed forward, ya don't even see it... Major Bonus!

And now Installed...

Up 36 hours non stop to get the car ready for the show... eyes are dropping fast, but I did want to share what it looks like done!
