Got the new steering made and installed

1.5" dom, 1/4" wall if I bend this I give up lol

Huge difference from stock, the weld in thread adapters and jamb nuts are custom from summit machine, custom thread for rover its an odd thread size

If anyone needs I have a spare stock unbent track bar and the front bar also unbent

As usual pic

Bought a used d2 spare tire hi lift mount, drilled the correct holes, not sure why they do not do this to begin with kinda dumb

Unfortunately my jack is a farm jack not hi lift so it sorta fits, holes in the rail are slightly off
