its a hi steer bracket so the track bar mounts higher. that means there is an open space under where the tb mounts which makes a perfect mounting place for my ram.

O OK! So, in the pic it's hidden behind the upper steering link that goes to the Pitman arm, right?

Thanks for the response.. Our rigs are set up almost exactly the same... I kinda wish I went with RCV's instead of nitro's and 300m joints... but we know how that goes.
