Yeah, the only one I can find is the one made by rdg engineering and that only lifts the drag link and panhard it doesn't move the tie rod so it's no good to me.

Marshal at All Barred Up Customs in Oak flats has made a custom weld on setup for his GU diffed GQ and it puts the two arms up high and in front of the diff. Looks good. Maybe look him up and give him a call

I swapped my swivel housings left to right to get the tie rod out front on my GQ diff, might work the same on a GU.

How was the clearance between the panhard and steering arm ?
Do you have any pictures you could put up of your steering arrangement ?
And did you cut off the old steer mount off the knuckle ?

Clearance was very tight, but it worked. I'll try to chase up some pics. Is this for the road or a comp truck. You chasing high steer or clearance for a five link.

Will be driven on road to tracks on weekends but only a few kms.
Will be putting a custom link set up in further down the track.
Just hate the idea of the drag link hang down there.

ON a GU I think the arms are lower, so tie rod sits pretty low. If you were going hydro steer the ram would be mounted below the axle tube out the front, so not ideal.
