It was the kit. Its only cross over, not high steer. I was originally just going to use the 4" block on the steering arm so I built my own lower tie bar. The arms are really nice pieces and I like the springless design. The crossover steering bar has a bend and I'm not sure why, but I'm still assembling.

How much lift is on your rig? I want to go with crossover but I only have 2" of lift. ORD says a minimum of 4". It looks like it will work to me but I'd like to be sure. They say the bend is put in for '73 and up trucks to clear the engine crossmember. It looks like it wouldn't be an issue with 67-72s but I don't want to waste the $$$. What do you think?

I have a 4" lift that was installed prior to me owning the truck. The arm is still close to the spring pack... The truck is in Henderson if you want to stop by and take a look on Sunday... PM me ...
