The steering arms that I have don't fit so I'd like some new ones making. I have put some sketches in this thread. Does anyone on here have the tools to make a pair of these:

Why don't they fit? Mine fit mt MNR no problem. standard sierra items with the MNR extensions.

What are you using that causes the problem?

I'm using mini front hubs and 10" wheels. I had a guy at work bore some holes in a straight piece of steel bar but I didn't take into account that the steering arm is above the centre of the wheel. The arm fouls the edge of the rim. I ground back one of the arms to fit but it cuts into the hole for the trackrod end.
