Ok, I have a 2000 F250 Super Duty with a 5.4l triton. I bought the truck already lifted locally, and all I know for sure, is that it has a BDS kit. It has to be at least a 6 in which is meant to clear 36's if my memory serves me correct, and the 8 in is supposed to clear 38 x 14.50's. But nonetheless, I want to lift a little bit bigger, I'm not quite satisfied with my height, though I know I'm already up there. Now I'm gonna guess I have the 8 in kit, considering that worn 39.5 x 13.50's barely rubbed, and my new 37 x 12.50's don't rub period. But I can't find a pitman arm for bigger than a 8 in lift. I know there's other ways to correct steering, possibly a high steer kit, though I'm not totally sure what it is, or how it works. I've seen photos from underneath bigger F series trucks that look like they have aftermarket knuckles with extended tie rod links, but I can't seem to find these either. If anyone can clarify this for me, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking for about another 6 inches of lift, with hangers and shackles, if that would help. Thanks. Also, is there a high steer kit for the Dana 50, or would I have to convert to a Dana 60 to even do a high steer.

ORU sells the kit for about 450. Included the new knuckle with the steering arm. Mine is one of the older models with the welded arm, the new ones are cast that way.
