Message: [QUOTE="Big Stroker 6.4, post: 706794, member: 3439"] Well after countless phone calls and many nights of research I finally took the chance and switched out my OEM linkage for Bulletproof Steering. As something as important as steering, I didnt want to screw this up.. By simply looking at the Bulletproof heim joints you can tell this isnt your ordinary joint. It takes a lot of force to get them to flex, the movement is smooth like a bearing and very tight. I opted for the "Race Proof Rods". The rods themselves are heavy, 1.5", 3/8" wall tubing, no way I am bending these. The results did not disapoint, my steering has never felt better. Positive feeling, real road feedback instead of the constant movement one way or the other. Another huge benefit is the fact that theres no need to run steering stabilizers with these heims being so tight, the pressure it takes to turn the wheel now is far less with out them. Ive put about 1000km on this system since install and haven't run into any issues so far. My track bar will be upgraded next with Bulletproof. Working the steering wheel back and forth from a stand still exposed some free play with my track bar, before the switch this play wasn't even noticable, kinda goes to show how much freeplay and flex was in the old (only 60000km) OEM system. So far so good, very happy I did this mod guys, one of the best things Ive done to this truck. Heres a couple installed pics.. The bars are dirty, it hasnt quit raining here for a couple weeks but the bars are powdercoated in a silver finish. I need to retorque, drill and install my cotter keys this weekend but for the most part install is done! [ATTACH=full]111701[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]111702[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
