I currently have a HD Tierod which I will sell to fund the upgrade, plus I have 2 Go-fir-it Tie rod flips to assist with the funding,
with my drag link looking like this (a hourse shoe) I need to replace it, and the fact I have a stock trac bar, I need to replace it, and to top it all off I planned on replaceing all the tie rod ends, and greese boots anyway so what do you all think of this as an upgrade?

Over the knuckle and HD DOM parts all around I think should equal a great upgrade.

 

Yeah man it'd be some work see how the put another bolt on the knuckle in the first picture so you'd have to do some fabricating but the over all quality of everything i think would make it totally worth it.

 

your talking this pic? which bolt?

 

I think he is referring to the bolt thru the knuckle attaching the heims. I run a simular homemade set up and i use two nuts on the bolt to lock it down. I don't trust those nylon lock nuts.

 

Personally I have tried several kits and tried to pay a little less for the last 2. I eventually had to replace the last kit with another kit. In my opinion the very best kit is the TerraFles Hi-steer kit. The Knuckle makes all the diffrerence in the world. And,,, there is a guy sellin em on ebay for 600,

I have it on my TJ and XJ and they are by far better than everything else I've seen fer a dana 30 or 44.

Let me know what you think. I run 37" boggers on my TJ w. no stabilizer and 35" BFG's on my XJ and no stabilizer. I'm tellin ya they are BEAST!!!

 

This kit looks great, but it still has a little bit of an angle issue because the drag-link connects low compared to where it connects to the pitman arm. (and that is a wicked dropped pitman arm)
I ran a very similar set up to this (that looks like the front of Rusty's XJ) and still had an issue with bump-steer due to drag link angle...
