I did, but if you have bad ball joints, track bar, wheel bearings or tie rod ends - NO

I just rebuilt my whole front end. How long is the install. Is it bolt on or weld on? I do all the work myself I am an ASE master tech.

It sure solved my wandering problem. I took me about an hour but I am not a master mechanic (shadetree, under a big oak) I have read that some one exprerienced can bolt it on in 10 min.

You can buy them from Rip at Source Automotive dot biz..... That is where I got mine. Rip was a pleasure to deal with. Worked great on my truck. Really tightnened up the steering wheel nicely. It took me a little less than an hour but I like to study on things (I'm slow) and had to chase a hole with a tap. Next time I did one, it probably wouldn't take but about 30 minutes or so.

I love mine. It made a big difference in the steering. No more wandering until the heim joint on my track bar loosenes up again.
