  • high steer question

    I didn't realize when i ordered it that my complete offroad steering kit was actually a crossover style steering. Is there any reason i can't use the crossover style on high steer arms? Or should i just keep the draglink and tie-rod seperate on the arms?

        you can put the tie rod OTK on the tie rod mount, and run the draglink on the hi steer part

          ok

          you can use it as an inverted t on the highsteer arms

          or run it crossover style with the high drag link and low tie rod.

          i would rock it all up high though, you shouldnt see much tie rod roll with it that high up and 6" of lift

            The drivers side is already machined for high steer so i have to machine the passengers side for the drag link, i might as well go straight up hi steer.

              What do you guys think about this, i sent my truss back to TNT on monday, they probably recieved it today, or will tommorow. Screw the hi-steer, if they haven't sent me the new one out yet, ill see if they can send me the truss with a stock trac-bar bracket, and run the steering the way it is.

              I would love to have hi-steer but that's more money i have to spend on machining the knuckle/buying hi-steer arms. Basically i just wanna get some opinions on if it is really worth the extra money to go with hi-steer or if it's more bling blang than anything. Obviously you get your steering out of the way, but i doubt ill ever bend this setup and most of the wheeling i've seen, dragging your tie-rod on a rock can be avoided with proper spotting.

                  If you had to do it over again, would you go hi-steer?

                    no

                    but i have like no lift. my angles are like stock, otk keeps the steering above the axle tubes and im happy with that

                      I called up TNT and they're sending my truss out today, i'm going to keep the hi steer trac bar mount and drill a hole lower to run OTK for now to save a little cash. That way when i have the money to go hi steer i dont have to weld a whole new trac bar bracket on.

                        highsteer is good for people that have sprung over leafs OR run a ram for hydro assist
