I'm looking to push the front axle on mine forward a little.
Seems to me that I heard of some problem, but can't seem to locate the source or what the problem might have been.


Thanks,

You may have to take the draglink and have the bend where the tie rod goes in enhanced slightly.

Takes a pretty stout press to get some more bend going there. My 20 ton wouldn't do it and we had to use Steve's manly man 50 tonner.

The other issue is that you may have to raise the swaybar links a tad to to get clearance on the tie-rod.

Those new link brackets are available from Mark Hinkley through his distributors. They work very nicely and are a great problem solver.
