89 xj 4.0, RE. 5.5" lift,hd adjustable trac bar.

I'm going to get v8 wj steering and goforit's tie rod flip(trying to do this on the cheap).At my current height will this be a decent setup?Should I flip both sides or just one?What else needs to be addressed when going this route as far as steering is concerned?
How will This setup work with 35x10.50's?
Need opinions,my stock steering isn't cutting it!!!My jeep handles like a wet rag...:banghead:
Thanks

Because thats what he asked:roll:

You can do the ZJ stuff, or you can do the 1 ton steering. Or many other options. You can get a kit from several people or do it yourself.
 
get the wj knuckles, and upgrade yoiur brakes at the same time. drill and taper, oneton ends on DOM.

Any design you choose to get the steering links up higher will reduce the angle of your drag link and provide better steering for you, as well as get the links futher away from the rocks. To get a benefit, you'll need to raise both sides, and you will need a RHD drag link so it will go on top of the knuckle. I believe the later steering stuff is bigger and stronger, so with the better angles it should work well with your 35's.
