The brakes are still on the frt axle and everything looks new. He switched out to a Mustang 2 set up. He said when he hit a bump in the road the front end would shimmy some so I will need to check the tightness of the rod ends . I am hoping that the spring center pins on the 1/2 ton are the same as my 3/4 ton.If so I got a heck of a deal on a set of disc brakes. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 1,859 Grumpy old guy playing with trucks, cars, and boats | | Grumpy old guy playing with trucks, cars, and boats Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 1,859 | the infamous bump steer......
