Anyone else do this?
Now that the axle is under the Jeep, looks like it'll have to be set up with 5/8ths bolts running from the hi steer arms to the stock steering horns with the linkages mounted on hiems on those long bolts, with the hiems located on those bolts with sleeves.
I think Currie does something like that with the hybrid 9.
A tie rod from one knuckle to the other will not work on either the stock horns or the hi steer arms due to the various brackets for springs, etc., but it does look like it'll work between the hi steer arm and the horn. Unfortunately it means a trip to the machine shop to work out the angles of the horns to hi steer arms to get the bolt to sit flat.
Anyone ever do this?
Its a hi pinion D44 with chevy flat top knuckles.
