well i got tired of the dinky jeep/ranger manual hubs so i decided to upgrade my Rubicon dana 44 with the Reid Racing knuckles that use 1/2 ton hubs. the knuckle come tapped and drilled for highsteer arms. so then i decided to design and machine my own highsteer arms.
i took some shots of the prototype arm being machined by the Haas TM-1 CNC mill. i wasnt able to check everything because someone at the shop tossed 2 of the 4 studs i needed to check for proper fitment. i guess ill just have to machine new studs as well. i plan on completing the conversion this weekend.
Prototype out of aluminum

mounted on the knuckle
i designed the arm to be a double sheer for the tierod and have the draglink mount on top of the the arm using the same bolt.
