Ghost. I may have to connect 2   D-shafts to the box. What did you use or what can I use to change the angle (pivot point).
I used a double universal joint from the box. I did have to use 2 heim joints on my shafts to keep everything solid and not let it flip around. The only reason I had to get so creative was because of those >:( damn headers

Cool. Thank you. Now I got a better idea of what I need to do once the box is mounted.  8)

Ghost,  I've been looking at your pic #2 .  I guess the drag link dosent have to go directly over the tierod. ???

Cause my Pittman arm bolt hole would be off an inch, compared to the tie rod.

I was looking at the Borgenson website and it said....
Any car over 2500lbs should be using a Saginaw 525 box and NOT a Vega box.
Wished I would have seen this info earlier. Just when you think you've done your research.

What do your guy's cars weigh that are using Vega boxes????

My guess is a Saginaw would be too big to fit where I needed it anyway.

You will be fine. I have used them under heavy Hemi cars and a coule of 2900 lb plus cars with no problems.
