Wanted opinions/suggestions of what everyone used for steering setup. HP30. Was looking at the Ruff Stuff kit, but not sure I want to do the Y steering. Hoping for WJ knuckle swap Ruff Stuff Y Steering Kit: http://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/cat ... rchant.mvc? Crossover Steering: http://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/cat ... GMSTE.html not sure about going with heims. Ran them on the OTK on my WJ, but they would always find a way to loosen up. |

I run crossover steering with Crane knuckles(and pass side high steer arm).Used GM 3/4 tie rod ends(both drag link ends and drivers side tie rod) and 1 Dodge 3/4 ton tie rod end(pass side tie rod),I can dig out the part #'s if you want.The tubes are 1 1/4" x 0.281" walled DOM that has been tapped to the correct threads for the tie rod ends(both left hand and right hand threads).The track bar is 1 1/2" x 0.5" walled DOM tapped for Jonny Joints on each end(1 left hand thread,1 right hand thread).No inserts welded in the DOM tubes,major weak spot. |
