flip tie rod and drag link...Help

[jcorneglio]

I want to move my tie rod and draglink to top of the knuckles on my d30. The tierod is hitting the passenger side spring. I have searched and found the how but not the where. I know I need a taper ream to retaper the holes from the top of the knuckle and have heard I can get cones to go in the bottom to take up the space from the stock taper. If someone knows the ream size, I can get one from work I think. I dont know where to get the cones though. Can someone help me out?:confused:

i don't think high steer (where you put steering arms on the top of the knuckles) but a flipped setup, where the stock knuckle locations are used, but the tierod is on the top instead of under. gains a couple inches of clearance.
