new steering for jeep coming

[yellowx]

just ordered the rustys steering conversion kit gonna put it on when i get it has anybody mounted these over the top like they did on trucks??

 

[PacificEd]

What kind of kit did you buy?

 

[yellowx]

the steering conversion that uses the full tie rod from wheel to wheel it is a inverted t setup ed it wasnt bad $294 with shipping it replaces the y setup and ive seen on one of the hp tv shows where they mounted it over the knuckle instead of under it for a hi steer conversion

You'll need a reamer to mount it over the knuckles. I put it underneath because I was to lazy. LOL! Just keep in mind if your using a thick or slider/add-on style diff cover it may rub. The straightness of the kit unlike the bends in the OEM stuff may limit steering a little. I haven't notched my diff cover yet but need to. It's already taking a lot of hits and seems to be holding up well. I'm also running the stock like trackbar.

GL with your install man. You'll find it pretty easy unless u go over the top.
