Most modern solid axle equipped trucks and Jeeps are equipped with crossover steering. If you have a lifted Jeep or truck, or do any off-roading, you should strongly consider adding a Ballistic Fabrication high steer kit to your vehicle. When you lift a solid axle vehicle the alignment of the crossover steering components change, sometimes to drastic angles depending upon the amount of lift added. When the axle flexes to it's limits steering components like ball joints and tie rod ends can fail due to the extreme angles. Measurement from the center of the kingpin to the holes of the arms for the steering Rod End is 8 1/4" and from the double sheer bolt it is 6 7/8" (HSA-801).
By adding a Ballistic Fabrication Ford Super Duty D60 High Steer Kit for Reid Knuckles to axle, this will move your steering components up and bring the crossover steering system closer to factory alignment. In addition, by moving the steering components up you will gain much needed clearance that moves the steering out of the way of obstacles on the trail. Also a perfect solution for those wanting to add full hydraulic steering.
Ballistic's Ford Super Duty D60 High Steer Kit for Reid Knuckles are fully CNC machined from Cold Rolled Steel and offer 3/4" thru hole for heim joints / rod ends. They have been zinc plated for corrosion resistance and laser etched with logo and revision details.
- Uses OEM 2005-2012½ SuperDuty ball joints, unit bearing, caliper, rotor, lockout hub, stub shaft, and U-joint. Ford changed the brakes on 2012½ and later SuperDuties so newer trucks must use Reid Racing D60003F knuckles.
- Anti-lock Brakes, Traction Control, Vacuum Hubs, and Electronic Stability Control systems are retained.
- Does not fit “Super 60” 10-lug axles (F450 & F550).
- Cast from high-strength ductile iron and beefed up with extra material and ribbing.
- Cast-in steering arm is tapered from the top and bottom so the OEM steering linkage may be re-installed.
