I am jsut wondering what kind of problems there are with putting all the steering higher on the knuckle. Im sure maybe clearance issues might be a problem but Im mean by putting extra stress on parts(ie. like heavy off set rims do to wheel bearings) Other then clearance and maybe akerman angles are all I have seen as possible negatives. So are ther any other negatives?

If everything is done right, it shouldn't be. I know that on the D44's Chevy knuckles came pre-drilled and used the same holes that the steering arms bolt to. The only potential problem that I see is an increse in leverage on the studs, if the arms are raised with blocks, or thicker arms are used.

you can end up will the steering ratio messed up if the high steer arms arent as long as the original nucle arms. you would have to shorten up the pitman arm to make it equil again.
