Default Currie/1 Ton Steering, Drop Pitman,Track Bar

I'm about to put my Jeep on long arms, 35s, and 7" of lift, and am going to need to fix up the steering. I'm looking for:

Currie or 1 Ton UTK steering setup in decent enough shape to bolt on. No Rugged Ridge or Crown please.

Double Shear style track bar meant for 4.5-7" of lift. I currently have a RK track bar and bracket meant for over 6.5", but would like to lower down to 5.5" in the future.

3-4" Drop Pitman Arm

Long shot here, but a full WJ swap would be considered for a decent price, but not sure i'm looking to get into all that work....yet.

PM me with what you have and what you want for it, pics if possible. I'm located in Mont Clare PA, just about 30 min outside of philly. Willing to drive to South Jersey or around PA to pick up parts depending on price. Thanks!

You really need to consider an OTK kit if you're serious about lifting your rig that much.

Draglink angle is too severe with a UTK kit at that height.

I second that!
I have the Currie steering at around 5" lift.
When the suspension cycles (10" travel) the wheels will turn back and forth and the axle shifts side to side. That's just the nature of having steep angles and Y-link steering.
Fine for slow stuff but when I run whoops and jumps its very noticeable in how the jeep handles.
