You basically have two options. You can run a flip arm, aka a double arm, which is basically one arm flipped over, milled flat and welded or bolted on to the arm already there. Alternatively BBM, Superior etc sell cast versions. This gives you what is known as crossover steer.


The better option though is to get a hi-steer arm, again, BBM, Lockdup, Superior etc. These days there is really very little difference in price between a cast flip arm and a histeer arm. If I were doing a SOA on a 40 I would be emailing locktup and ordering one fo sho. This gives you what is known (surprisingly) as Hi-Steer and IMO is the preferable of the two.
