Re: rough country dual steering stabilizer problem.

Front driveline geometry is a compromise on these trucks for sure. Short of cutting the knuckles off and rewelding them, you just have to live with some of that on larger lifts.

I've always considered "bump steering" to be the change in geometry of the steering components as the suspension moves. In the context of a straight axle that would be the shortened distance between the steering arm and pitman arm as the axle moves up, causing a corresponding unwanted input in steering. Toe won't change, but the steering angle sure does. The short drag link on a K series can be pretty bad, especially on large lifts, hence the crossover steering conversions.
