Steering upgrades

[mudgoblin36]

Hello
I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for an upgraded steering kit for my FJ62. I noticed my tie rods were severely rusted and I haven't had any luck in finding specific kits for the 62. If anyone has some experience with this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Are you looking to upgrade or just replacement with new

Just did this as part of suspension and brake upgrade. Cruiserteq (cruiseroutfitters). Tip- take off all steering arms and damper - I tried just a pry and hammer or gear puller and failed. Moved onto air hammer and fork which was like magic.

Powerwashed them, took off all the ends, metal brushed and painted. The removal was the toughest part!

Before and after

@cliffrdavis i think your anti inversion shackles are upside down. build looks great otherwise.

they should look like this…

they’ll probably still work like you have them but they will “invert” a lot more before the cross pin engages

Crap! You are right. Right direction but upside down!! Thanks for heads up - don’t know how I missed that!!
