HiSteer

Post by Wooders »

Just wondering if anyone has giiven much thought to a TJ Highsteer setup?
I know Suburban have been playing with it - but not much has been said.....
So I was wondering if anyone had more news or ideas???
I'd love to more to a HiSteer but don't want to spend much $$$ on a Dana30 so ideally a cost effective suggestion.....

Sorry Bill, I'll direct my next tech question about carpet to there :splat:
Hmm thanks for the tip - I'll have a look see....

I'm still thinking longer term will be the front end swap - which hopefully will include HiSteer....

Give me some more details on the 60 please.
May be interested. whats sams email addy? and where is he?

Wooders - Look at the goferit tie rod flip kit for a nice cheap solution.
Well it is not full high steer but it does get the tie rod a bit more out of the way and all for the grand sum of US$28

Zach,

Interesting...Is is only for one side - would be nice if could be installed on both sides....Doesn't address the Panhard rod, so I'd guess you'd need to relocate that to avaoid bumpsteer...

I wonder what the ADR's & Engineers would have to say about it.....

We get billet high steer arms for dana 44's, haven't ever tried for anything else. A few different configurations are possible depending on what knuckles you have and whether you wish to run one or two arms.
It's also possible to run chevy k20 truck knuckles and spindles ( have to redrill the caliper mounts)

bah! bumpsteer, couldn't give a rats ass about that onroad crap :)
US$28 and very cheap for shipping as it is so small is a good price for that little doohicky. Raise one end of your tie rod by 1-2" and the other end will even lift a tiny bit as well.

Don't bother doing high steer on your dana30 - just not worth polishing that turd any more than you have to. hehe. :D
