Yes we do a whole kit as well with all heavy duty arms and good quality japanese ball joints, if you going to spend big on steering you might aswell get good ball joints.
we use a custom pitman arm and adapter which gives excellent clearance even when the diff is moved forwards more than 2 inches.
The boss is a seperate piece made of chromoly but the design of it, in theory allows the unit to be run even without the bolt holding the boss in place.
Yes the double arms are being machined up at the moment so im guessing in the next week or so.
Its kind of dragging on a bit now but soon hopefully, it will be worth the wait......... |

you would need an IFS hilux/surf steering box. They are available in both powersteer and no-power, but honestly the swap would be pointless without powersteering, in my opinion.

so an IFS box at $350 plus kit at $1280 = $1630 to go cross over p/s compared to $1250 for hilux p/s for live front axle. Aginst $500 ish to make 60 series p/s fit.
The options are begining to grow....
Now if only my 3" lift needed such steering. |
