Steering and more from Ruffstuff!

This is kind of an offshoot from our DOM sales & its about time! We have taken way too long to bring these to market. The prices some companies charge are out of this world for these simple items so we are going to serve them notice right here!

Steering components from Ruffstuff Specialties using our own Heat & Cryo Treated Chromoly Heims or GM 1 Ton Tie Rod Ends.

I priced these out using a fair pricing model we have developed (we do have to make money or we won't be around long) but after I was done I compared our prices to several other companies and was sure I had made a misstake! Our pices couldn't be that much lower than theirs could it? I did my pricing again & again, always with the same result. Okay, our pricing is simply more fair I guess ;)

We have also uncovered some interesting Tie Rod Ends for those of you having problems with Diff Cover clearance, pretty damned cool with the same strength specs of a standard GM 1 Ton TRE...

They are available alone or as a kit

All of our kits using Heims also use our unique Safety Misalignment & Hex Bungs

All of our kits give you choices that can save you money, be stronger, and be more versatile. Look closely through the selections and make your decisions carefully. Keep in mind DOT regulations about Heims in steering. Heims are not legal in any state for highway use when used in steering. They may perform better but are not DOT approved, use your judgement...

These hae been on our site for about a month and it really seems you like them with 6-8 sets shipping daily :)
 
the y link is a direct bolt up corrrect?

Not without chopping your sway links off, methinks, and re-tapering your steering knuckles with a rare / expensive reaming tool.

After you've done those twi things, sure, it will bolt right on.
 
There were a couple of answers for you ;)

It would need the taper enlarged for the 1 ton size (.799) but the tool is not hard to find, most machine shops have them and I was planning on carringthem starting next Tuesday...
 
Damn, those offset TRE's are awesome, would be great for a WJ steering setup. Wish I could figure out a way to make them work.

Got my heim steering kit sitting at home waiting to be installed.
 
Does anyone have a quick link to a build thread specifically for using RuffStuff's Y-Link OTK steering GM 1 ton?
