Yes there radials and they do ok,not really my first choice tho..Ill be going with km2's next :) Looks good. What steering mods do you have? It looks interesting.
I have the WJ 12" brake upgrade which includes the pass side high steer knuckle... I just used some tube and heims instead of the factory WJ steering... |

i'm doing the same thing but i got the wj steering for that - wouldn't mind seeing some closeups of the heims. Also, did you drill out the knuckles for the heim bolts and what did you use (tube, heims, bolts and nuts)? and were there any issues with hitting the diff cover? |

I like the fact that you were able to put the tie rod ends on top of the steering arms as well as have the high steer. I´m not sure the Teraflex high steer kit would have enough space to put the tie rod over the arms on the passenger side ... at least I've never seen one set up that way.

Ill get some pics this weekend for ya..Honestly id have to go out and look at everything again to see what size it is lol... The only problems i had were the swaybar tabs so we put a bend in the tube out by the knuckles and i cut the tabs off  I like the fact that you were able to put the tie rod ends on top of the steering arms as well as have the high steer. I´m not sure the Teraflex high steer kit would have enough space to put the tie rod over the arms on the passenger side ... at least I've never seen one set up that way. Looking at the TF kit you maybe able to fit the TRE on the top,but for that price id just go and find the steering off a wj in the junk yard and save $$$.. |

Looks like a standard off-the-shelf 3" suspension lift (coils, shocks, disconnects, trackbar relocation bracket, etc.)
