Yeah mine is stock but that xj on the very bottom pic is not mine but one of the other guys that i was running with. not too sure what his setup is though.

Im about 100% sure it's ORO's U-turn... I ran it for awhile before swapping axles and its a great kit...
 
Nice pics, and I like your spare driveshaft mount. One of these days I'll get up there to run that trail.
 
Yes that is my XJ and yes I am running ORO U-Turn it was worth every penny,steers great,bolted on with no issuses.Hane been running it for 3 years with 35's.

I can tell by the pic. He did. Looks ok. Way over priced IMO, but beefy.
 
When I originally installed the kit I used the stock track bar position. I had only very minor bump steer with 7 ½” lift. Two months ago I trussed the axle and used a JKS over the axle mount. I had to drill a new hole in the mount to lower the track bar to make the drag link and track bar parallel. Now I have no bump steer at all and can run down the freeway at 80 mph. I do have some tire scrub due to poor Ackerman angle but I must say the system works very well and yes it is not cheap. Steering is too important to go cheap on. I run mostly rock here in northern California and have not had issues with the tie rod ends

.....meaning quality, then yes I agree.....

I paid around 250 for 1.5" .025" DOM, bungs, and QA1's.(wouldn't be a lot more or less with chevy 1ton's) Plus the JKS t.b. bracket....
