Just wanted to share this since i couldn't find any dimensions on the hi steer arm in relation to the stock lower arm. 1988 pickup with 80 series axles, 2uzfe and single 4.7 tcase.
Please note this steering is temporary just to get truck in and out of shop as i will be running heims. This is also a trail rig.
Also i am going to weld the arm to the knuckle, since you can still remove the knuckle from the housing with the top cap in place. i think the three bolts will be strong enough if you use it as double sheer as designed, but since i am going to run the joint above the arm with a single bolt i would like a little more strength. As for the shim in between i will just leave it in there and see what happens. lol
if you need any measurements lmk
