Step 5: Steering

We made the steering components out of a solid piece of round stock. We welded the round stock to some tie rod ends and then to a industrial washer. The tie rod end is bolted to a bolt that we welded to the square stock on the spindle. Now you need to make a steering knuckle that the steering shaft welds to. We took a 4" section of 1" square tube and welded two big bolts to opposite sides of the tube and those bolts sit inside the washers that are welded onto the round stock.
