Default B. Lee Steering Kit

I searched and haven't seen any recent feedback from those who have tried this kit out. I am intrigued to hear what people who have had this kit installed think of how it handles in a DD situation. Would you buy it again? For me, it has boiled down to this or the Currie Currectlync but in order to run the currectlync I would have to have new extended sway bar mounts burned in, and on B. Lee's website they are advertising this as a kit that will clear any interference point on the axle. I will be running this UTK just in case that matters to anyone. Thanks!!!

This kit seems to be top of the line and well designed using excellent materials/workmanship. Several on here are running them and are well pleased with them. If I recall they are a vendor here also, I think and offer a discount to members.

B. Lee kit seems quality and I've heard nothing but good things about it. That said, are you wanting to run heims on a daily driver? Also, I was not aware you had to add extended sway bar mounts to run the Currie system?

I am not 100% sure on the heims as i have never had them before and I know there are mixed opinions out there on this issue. After having installed my IRO long arm kit a while back, I had to "adjust" the tie rod as it was making contact with the sway bar mount when the wheel was fully turned to the passenger side (if i recall correctly). I have heard this is not uncommon and I know the Currie system is bent to the same angle as the stock tie rod and I do not care to "adjust" it .

I have the HD high clearance kit that I'm running OTK and it's been great, extremely beefy
