Steering link

I need to get a new steering linkage and not sure on witch one to get and would like some opinions. I am running 33'' with a 6.5' lift. I use it 50/50 dirt and road.

Do you want fab work or bolt-on?
 
Go with Currie steering.


Do not buy inverted T crap unless you want to deal with a dead spot.
 
Or with 33's you could just change your tierod to V8 ZJ one(solid metal) if you haven't.

that is a decent option, but be aware that if you do that, you move the weak link to the drag-link which is not nearly as easy to fix or replace in a trail breakage situation.

so if you go the V8 ZJ tie-rod route, grab yourself a spare drag-link off an XJ (not a ZJ) and hang on to it.
 
and it ****ing blows.

its bad geometry, and will give you ****ed up bump steer and pays no attention to ackerman.

Dose any one have used this kit, I have my own custom made links, tire to tire tie rod, and the drag link connects to my tie rod, i have some bump steer, and was thinking of buying only the brackets and fabing my own drag link and tie rod, so I could connect on the right side the drag link and tie rod.

Any comments on this kit, dose it relay work?
