    well now that the steering shaft is connected... my a arms are a little over 1/4 wider then the UPRs i had in the car. these are 89 QA1s vs. 00 UPRs.

    edit: after a little bit of heat and seperating the kmember a arm mounts...i was able to install one of the a arms.

    started on the aerospace manual brake conversion today and things went smooth. got the old MC off but no luck wit the right hardware for the aerospace kit. 1 quick stop to the hardware store tomorrow and the swap should be done.

    here are the final pictures right before the start up. ran it for 30sec with no belt just to make sure i had oil pressure and no leaks.

    maybe a bump steer kit? could possibly take care of your problem.
