I love my afr gauge for carb tuning. Never could come up with a good way to mount it though, so it's always temporary and then left off

Drove for an hour today. Good and bad stuff.
I’ll forever have a list of things to keep me busy on this truck for sure. Steering is still sketchy. The reman gear certainly is noticeable but the road manners are still awful. Sailing ship/darty type stuff. If it’s not my T link, it’s the toe setting or not enough caster. I also suspect the leafs of shifting. In hard cornering you can feel the ass end shift and get an oversteer condition. Gonna try a panhard.
Much more pleasant driving with glass, weatherstripping and the heater works great.
Awww first time in the snow.
Very pleased with the new fan setup. It was only low 20s but everything works and cycles as it should. Pleased with the steady 19in hg. Oil pressure is much more stable with the new T4 10w30. I tried to be rattle snake cool and get the shift indicator light to work but didn’t have any bulbs. Best I could do is the climate controls.

Dropped the water last night in the driveway. 17* didn’t let it run very far 
Still icicles hanging from the drag link. Now with 50/50 mix it can live outside.
Forgot that I have a 1/4 mile tunnel in my back yard. Brappppppppppppppp. Made some music last night to circulate the anti freeze.
Wish I could describe the sketchy steering. It wanders across the lane. It requires constant gentle and ever floating steering wheel input. Cornering is probably the most sketchy. It will pull in harder and the counter correction can be unpredictable.
Toe-in is 3/8”+ Fault of my fixed T link and offset heim joints.
Caster is 4* It’s hard to find a factory number but some references are as low as 3* I know what some will preach. I could change the bushings and get 7* but it will most likely make the front driveshaft inoperable.
I can easily make this a crossover drag link setup. It may require a new pitman arm which isn’t an issue other than time. While the knuckles are off for BJ deletes, I can drill the factory steer arms.
How much is this reverse Ackerman screwing me over? Pretty sure I just want to dump it in favor of factory. It wasn’t a choice I made but rather a product of the arm design. I just rolled with it not knowing otherwise.
Full droop shot but aside from slightly flatter link angles, the two trucks are near identical. This truck would go 80-90mph with no steering issues. It had factory Ackerman and 7-8* caster being the most notable differences. Locked axles and full time 4x4. Never anything scary.

First attempt at mall crawling. Too dark and cold to see much but I didn’t crunch a fender at least. It looks light out but that the iPhone magic
This is really how dark it was. Drove right to the waters of Lake Superior.
