    inner fender patch panels?

    "I'd like to keep the OEM good steel fender, and patch it." if it's good why does it need a patch? I would just go with after market. trying to find good ones for a 73-80 is going to be a chore. besides what's wrong with shaving a few pounds off. I have 2 OEM 86 inner and outers for sale...

    Out of adjustment on draglink????????

    so, first off cutting tie rod ends to get proper steering is so wrong I can't even believe you did it. yes you need a steering arm if you lift it. that is where the problem lies. get a steering arm, new tie rod ends and fix it right. as far as the length of the drag link you can take the...
