When you take your 4x4 rig into extreme terrains, the factory steering system quickly becomes a vulnerability. For builders pushing their vehicles to the limit, investing in a premium Dana 60 high steer kit is essential to protect vital linkages and maintain precise control over massive tires.
Conquering Trails with a Dana 60 Crossover Steering Kit
Lifting a vehicle drastically alters the suspension geometry, causing the drag link to operate at a steep angle. This leads to severe bump steer and unpredictable handling. By installing an hd crossover steering kit, you relocate the steering linkages above the leaf springs. This Dana 60 kingpin crossover steering configuration ensures the drag link remains parallel to the axle, providing smooth, car-like handling on and off the trail.
Billet Dana 60 Steering Arms for Unmatched Durability
To handle the immense torque of rock crawling, you need steering arms that won't shear or bend. This kit features massive 1.25 inch thick Dana 60 arms machined from solid domestic blocks. These billet Dana 60 steering arms offer incredible tensile strength compared to brittle cast alternatives.
Designed with a highly versatile 5 hole Dana 60 steering arms pattern, they serve as excellent Reid compatible Dana 60 arms for heavy-duty aftermarket knuckles, while bolting perfectly onto standard factory 4-hole setups.
What Makes the East West Offroad Dana 60 Kit Essential?
The East West Offroad Dana 60 kit provides a complete, professional-grade solution engineered for ALL Dana 60 Kingpin axles. It is the perfect foundation for a custom Dana 60 steering kit upgrade that will survive the harshest environments.
Heavy-Duty GM 1 Ton Steering Kit Integration
A heavy-duty axle requires massive joints. This comprehensive Dana 60 tie rod kit operates as a complete GM 1 ton steering kit conversion. It includes the strongest joints in the industry:
The high-angle ES2026R drag link kit hardware.
A robust ES2027L drag link end for a secure pitman arm connection.
Ultra-durable ES2234L ES2234R tie rod ends to link the knuckles.
Because custom builds vary heavily in track width, this package is intentionally offered as a Dana 60 high steer without DOM tubes. Fabricators can source and cut their own heavy-wall DOM tubing locally, and easily weld in the provided left and right 7/8-18 weld bungs and jam nuts for a flawlessly tailored fit.
Eliminating Death Wobble with Springless Dana 60 High Steer
The original factory kingpin setup relies on a nylon cone and a coil spring that compress and wear out during aggressive off-roading. This design flaw leads directly to steering wander and the violent shaking known as "death wobble."
The Power of the Dana 60 Bronze Bushing High Steer Kit
The included Dana 60 bronze bushing high steer kit permanently eliminates this flaw. This springless Dana 60 high steer upgrade uses a solid bronze bushing and a threaded preload set screw in place of the factory spring. By converting to a Dana 60 kingpin high steer system, you mechanically lock in the exact tension on your knuckles, delivering crisp, highly responsive steering that never fades.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the advantage of 1.25 inch thick Dana 60 arms?
The 1.25 inch thick Dana 60 arms are CNC-machined from solid billet steel, offering maximum resistance against the bending and shearing forces encountered when turning large tires in bound-up situations on extreme off-road trails.
Why is this sold as a Dana 60 high steer without DOM tubes?
Every custom lifted truck has a unique track width and suspension setup. By providing the 7/8-18 weld bungs and jam nuts without pre-cut tubes, custom fabricators can source and cut their own DOM tubing for a perfectly tailored fit rather than relying on a generic size.
Does the ES2026R drag link kit improve articulation?
Yes. The ES2026R drag link kit components and the paired ES2027L drag link end are engineered specifically for high-angle applications. This allows your suspension to reach maximum articulation without binding or restricting the steering box.
Are the 5 hole Dana 60 steering arms compatible with stock axles?
Absolutely. While the fifth hole makes them premium Reid compatible Dana 60 arms, you can easily bolt them onto standard factory 4-hole knuckles by simply aligning the four standard mounting points and leaving the extra hole unused.
