I have a couple questions maybe u guys can help me with. I need to extend my steering shaft by about an inch and a half or two. I read about people drilling out some plastic (shear?) pin to allow the shaft to extend. I cant seem to find one on mine just a solid metal tube with this steel accordian sleeve on part of it. Do I cut the shaft, sleeve it with a piece of tube and weld up to extend?




Also, I cant figure out if I should mount the brakelines on the inside or outside of the frame rail. It seems if it is on the inside it might not have enough reach when at full droop. If it is on the outside it seems that it would be prone to attacks from rocks and sticks coming up in the wheelwell and damaging the line. Any thoughts on these?  
RIP KYOTA
