Yeah bro, I'm running that way.......originally to gain an inch of wheel base, but turned out it helped clear my tires from my pinchweld....

In other words, your military is up front now.......I don't have any problems with drag link or tie rod, but then again, i'm running standard crossover steer, not hi steer....forgot what you have on that thing....you should be ok swapping direction, you'll gain some clearance, and I can only guess you want to do that cuz of those 37's hitting you're feet :D

Just make sure you keep it on the center hole (center pin) because otherwise it might be a bit too much move forward....

thats what im running. no problems with pitman/DL/TR binding with high steer, ill look for some pics. it will point your pinion down some though.

Anthony,
I was thinking why not just run standard crossover steering?? I see no issue as long as your tie rod is BURLY and I'm sure that isn't hard to accomplish. I was thinking about doing this once I do 37's just to keep the tires out of the shits. Here is the setup I'm thinking about- 44044's short side forward, run standard crossover steering with a burly tie rod, lower the truck some for a better drag link angle, fab up a panhard bar, mount the ram assist to the axle end of the panhard mount and have the ram protected by the burly ass tie rod. How do you feel about that?? :D This way we wouldn't have to mess with changing the position of the box and can run bigger tires without worry of the drag link and tie rod interfering, I mean, people already run regular crossover with no issues, as long as its setup right, right?

good call. I may end up going to standard crossover aswell. :D

Screw that! All you need to do is coilovers and 39" IROK's, Todd :D

are you talking about the TR hitting the center pin? if so drill the arms out for hiems and run a misalignment spacer in there. i forgot to add that point about mine :D

No, he means the drag link and tie rod interfere.

Anthony, here's your pic...it's in the yunny album...and i agree with the standard crossover....I've hit my tie rod a few times, just make it burly, but as long as you do a down taper on the knuckles so the tie rod sits above, you're all good....I can show you at az...
