Is that a welded double steering arm you are going to use?
I take it you are not going to get this engineered?

you could have the part x-rayed. If it passed it could be engineered.
For the additional cost of this you could probably just buy the cast arm.

Wheres the other half of your front U bolts
It looks like you have welded bolts to the side of the diff
I get the feeling that an engineer or dep of transport type guy isnt going to like the look of that.
Other than that she looks pretty sweet
