2 - 7/8" X 3/4" RS Stainless Safety Misalignment
2 - 7/8" X 3/4" RS Stainless Misalignment
2 - 3/4" bore Safety Washers
This is what came with my steering kit from RSS.
Im trying to figure out the location of the mis alignments and safety mis aligns.
The way this is setup the only thing i can see is I would need:
Pitman arm: One misalign and one safety misalign
Knuckles: One misalign each and one safety-misalign on top of each.
Cross over point: Two misalignments because of the double shear.
Overall: 5x Misalign and 3x Safety Mis align
This is how I would do it, which would require another order from RSS for one more safety misalign and two more mis aligns.
Am I looking at this wrong? I know you need a safety washer anywhere there is a single shear, but is there a place im putting a misalignment type and I dont need it?
