i after careful study i've done on the weekend - simply starring at idler arm i've realized it's there only to make drag link paralled to tie rod. i'll be ordering a custom hy-steer arm at some local metall factory so i'll have steering simillar to gq.
cheers.

will GQ pitman arm fit a MK/MQ power steering box?
I had to re-do slightly my MK frame and I had to move my frame's front cross member, where the idler arm bolts on. Now I'd like to re-do my steering on my MK similar to GQ (no idler arm). Can I do the following: leave MK stock tie-rod, then have a custom made drag link that will go from the tie-rod ...

Original hubs seem to be the best option but they are the most expensive ones. Same thing with my matte's Toyota - AISIN hubs considered to be the best (Toy original), then WARN Premiums. I don't like AVM hubs - their dial is made out of plastic. I will try to look up used original hubs then in junk ...

Manual Locking Hubs for 160 MK/MQ
G'day. I spent some time looking in the US on-line shops manual locking hubs for my 160 MK. It used to have automatic hubs but I bought axle without hubs from a junk/salvage yard. I was able to find that SuperWinch, AVM and MileMarker make hubs for Patrol 160. What would be my best choice? I was ...
