mercedes arms for ott or hi steer

[67fastback]

Here are some pics of the mercedes arms that purchased to moved the tie rod and drag link bars over the top (OTT) of the springs since I have a SPOA done. This way I will not need to use a zbar and this help with putting the steering back to original position just above the springs.

I can one of two things:
1. do a 1/2 hi steer where I only take one (1617 left mercedes arm) and put it on the right side and connect only a modified tie rod to it. and leave the drag link below the springs in it original possition.

2. put both mercedes arms on and then shorten the drag link bar to fit between the mercedes arms and leaving the tie rod connected to original location on the drag link bar.

I also had to purchase some new bolts for the mercedes arms because they are fatter and the original bolts will not work.
2ea - m12x1.25x50mm
2ea - m12x1.25x60mm
from lowes 5 bucks each.

I will need to drill out the center holes of the mercedes arms with a 9/16" drill bit. This way the holes will line up with original holes on the samurai.

now for the pics:
