anybody have experience with this kit?
my trucks steering is shot anyway, and I'm thinking this would dramtically increase my chances of not smearing myself on a tree. but, it says all over it that you must use a superlift dropped pitman arm. i've got an RCD one on it now...why the heck won't that work? so I figure the superlift one must drop a different amount.
can somebody post up maybe a pic with measurements on it or something?
thanks for the imput everybody.:icon_thumby:

Probably becasue they want you to buy THEIR product.

The only reason I can see them saying that, is they may run a slightly different taper on the TRE at the pitman, than the others.

I'm running a non Superlift pitman with my kit and have no issues, but I did get the SL pitman with the kit.

thanks :)
hows do you like the kit? It seems like a whole hell of a lot of $ for what you get, but I gotta start driving my truck about 80 miles a day compared to 10-ish.

I think site owner Jim Oaks has Superrunner steering on TRS-1. Shoot him a PM.

I drive 120 per day. I had decent Tierod angle with the inverted Y linkage and it was fine. I didn't notice a whole lot of difference. It seems to make more offroad than on (With good angles).

I have it on my '92 and it is much better than stock and am using a Skyjacker drop pitman arm with no troubles.

How much lift is on your truck?
Contrary to what Superlift states, the kit does not work well if you have more than a 4" lift. It would need to be modified by dropping the centerlink down lower to work well with a 5.5-6" lift.

The kit will bolt up fine if your pitman arm is like the one on the right below (or up to ½" lower)

I've got a 4" lift on it now. The pitman arm I have is a BDS. I'm also a little worried about my gear box. I'm assuming you can adjust the preload on it, but I haven't looked into it.
