      Steering Shaft

      Wanted opinions. Is there anything wrong with how I set up my steering linkage? Should the support bearing be closer to the double joint or can it stay in the center of the shaft?

      Steering Shaft

      In my opinion it should be closer to the double. There's a lot of leverage on that, and it will likely flex the shaft a little bit where you have it now.

      I agree, the support needs to be moved closer to the steering box.
