Breeze cross-over installed - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

M.Martian · 10-15-2001, 10:28 PM

I just got through finishing up installing the Breeze cross-over that I picked up from Luigi.

The install was really easy overall. The only problem that I had was getting the kingpin out of the passenger side. I would say that it only took a little over an hour for the whole job.

I'm running an RRO deluxe 4.5 spring over (which gave about 5 inches with the leaf packs I'm running) and the CSC YJ kit. Total lift was about 9-10 inches and the z-link I had just wasn't cutting it. Bump steer was very bad on the road. The cross-over steering raises the drag link up 5 inches from it's stock location.

The difference is like night and day though. The bump steer is almost completely gone. A heavier duty (or one that isn't 15+ years old) steering stabilizer should take away what little is left.

For anyone with bump steer I recommend looking into it. It's pricy, but well worth it based on my test drive. Next step is to take it off the road and see how it does.

Good choice on your buy . I think the breeze cross over setup is the best stearing setup ever.If i still had stock axles , that would be the best mod after a lift kit.
Check out the traction bar breeze has , It is another must have mod . I had one and i loved it.

I couldn't agree with this more.... and I would also highly recomend the traction bar... I blew apart a rear driveshaft when I put the twin-cam in. After the traction bar went in it never even came close after two years of hard driving...and almost zero axle-wrap
