Stormin 4,458 #1 Posted April 8, 2020 The steering on the C-121 Black Horse, was a little heavy. Yesterday I did a bit of investigating. I found that the track rod ends were just fouling the steering arms. The track rods slope downwards and the steering arms tilt inwards. So I knocked up a couple of spacers this morning. Just 1/4" thick and really need to be thicker, but I'd no bolts long enough to fit through thicker ones. Another future mod one day. If you look closely at the photo, you can see the top of the spacer is slightly chamfered. Not done a proper road test yet. I'll do that tomorrow. The rest of the day was spent getting the C-125 running better and made a towing attachment for the Sears/Roper. 1 Alan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
