Enhance steering performance with durable steel construction and improved geometry.
The Rugged Ridge Steering Linkage Conversion Kit is designed to enhance the steering performance of vehicles equipped with larger tires. This kit features a robust construction using 1-1/4 inch inner diameter SAE 1018 steel, which is cold rolled and drawn through dies to achieve a wall thickness of 1/4 inch. The use of true DOM tubing ensures there are no seams or welds that could fail under stress, providing a reliable solution for off-road applications.
This conversion kit includes heavy-duty 7/8 inch rod ends with standard tapered ends, allowing for compatibility with stock knuckle applications. By replacing the bump steer prone inverted Y-type steering system, this kit connects the drag link to the end of the tie rod at the wheel, resulting in improved steering angles and leverage. This is particularly beneficial for lifted vehicles, where a crossover steering system is essential for optimal handling.
Installation is straightforward with a bolt-on design, making it accessible for users looking to upgrade their steering components without extensive modifications. The kit includes all necessary installation hardware, ensuring a complete solution for enhancing vehicle performance.
