Didn't have a choice. Couldn't make the drag links fit no matter what combination I came up with. Hopefully I don't have any issues with this. I'm "going to a 1pm meeting" today and am going to get the box and arm bolted up and hopefully bled. Then it's just figure out the detent cable and get that working and then go for a drive. Little luck I'll get it done before the kids get home around 4. Then pull it back in the garage and measure and mount the front shocks and call this project done.
I'm starting to get a little annoyed with my tube doors. Ordered them on Feb 28th and was told 8-10 week lead time. Spoke to them on May 1 and were told they were still a couple of weeks out. I'm at week 12 and still no shipping notification. These things better be awesome for the wait.

2hrs later and the steering box is in. Steering shaft was seized so I had break that free. Now all that’s left is to reconnect the steering shaft, install the pitman arm, install the crossover shaft, connect the power steering lines, bleed them, and go for a drive. Should only take me 4 more weeks.

I told my wife that Monday I’m getting the thing on the road. I’m coming down the home stretch. Of course that’s all assuming that the power steering pump doesn’t die, the lines fit, it starts, and the trans shifts haha.
