Over The Knuckle question

Has anyone used the grand cherokee parts to do the otk steering up grade? If so what parts did you use and part numbers would be great.

I want to install this on an 89.

Thanks for your assistance!

A lot of info out thee about this swap.

JCR and JKS both have parts available for this swap. JCR has a decent info setup. Search over on Naxja. Lots of info over there too. Pirate has a lot of info about it too.

I am in the process of getting parts together to do this. This swap is best dont on an axle where you can work on it a lil at a time. Expect to pay around 100 bucks for knuckles, and possibly brakes. Over on Pirate there is a writeup about using Explorer sport trac rotors.. or you can have the stock ones re drilled.

Lots of info out there.. just have to dig a lil. I suggest reading al of the links that seem relavent. I spent probrably 20+ hrs researching this mod before dropping a penny on anything.
