DC Adj. Wide Front Experts...?

My DC underwent a major transformation in the last few weeks: from hand to foot clutch, overhauled engine, and short wheel base wide front to and adjustable wide front. I am still working out lots of bugs. The main steering shaft which goes up and down in the front casting appears to have a problem. When the top arm is where it belongs the Y-casting on the bottom which the tie rods fasten to is off centered to the right. This results in one tie rod having to be 1.5" longer than the other and lots of other problems. I am wondering if maybe I have the wrong arm on the top...? The number on mine is 6155A. Mine is straight. If there were one that curved toward the back it would solve my problem. The shaft is not twisted and neither of the half moon keys are sheered off. There has to be a simple solution but I sure don't know what it is! Any ideas? Thanks, Glenn F.

Glenn,
I have the exact same condition with the DC LP. I finally just adjusted the tie rods to make it work. I have the old steering arm (from the AWF to the drag link)and it is straight as well. I am thinking that there must be a shorter drag link arm for the AWF units. That is the logical explanation, but probably not the right one.
I do have a brake pulley adjusting collar if you still need one. But both my pulley brakes are junk. Let me know. Don

Don, I didn't think to send you an e-mail. As I said, if the best of your brake arms could be repaired/relined I'd be interested in it. I need the collar as well. I will be gone for two weeks but will check my e-mail upon my return. Thanks, Glenn F.

Yes Don, I still need the adjusting collar. How bad is the best of your brake arms? If it is useable I would reline it and use it. I am not coming up with any others. I have that NOS SC one but sure hate to cut it up to fit the DC. Let me know. My e-mail is open. Thanks, Glenn F.

Hey Don: Ted said I am supposed to get a Bat. Cover out to you. Did I send you one earlier?

Is the "chicken roost" curved? The one that was on our DC adj. wide front went all the way to the front and then the last 2' curved to the right.
