Driver side drop Rockwell

[5.7yjuggy]

Any body have info onthe best way to make a steering Rockwell driver drop? Any machine work
Involved or just flip the center chunk?

Just turn the whole axle around, the only change you would have to do is flip the knuckles to the front or back depending on which side you want the steering to be on.

I thought about that but thought I may have to flip the center section as well.. But thanks for the heads up that makes it easy

From what I've read on redbarncustoms.com u can unbolt the center chunk & spin it around & it will still pull same direction that's what I'm goin to do ....that's jus what I've read on that site I'm not sure tho u might want to check that out ur self

If you spin the chunck there's 8 bolts you'll have to redrill I had to do that to my rear steer I took an old center chunk I grenaded cut the top off it and made me a jig works good.

ya have to redrill holes and i welded the old holes shut cuz they over lap a little when flipping the chunk but if you want it driver drop i wouldnt flip the chunk cuz that will center the driveshaft yoke on the axle....works great for rear steer but if your using it for a front steer just turn the axle around
