05-16 Super Duty Dana 60 Weld-On High Steer Kit
05-16 Super Duty Dana 60 Weld-On High Steer Kit –
Whether you’ve already taken the plunge and swapped in the legendary Ford Super Duty Dana 60 front axle or are still planning your heavy-duty solid axle swap, don’t overlook upgrading the steering to match the axle’s robust design.
This weld-on high steer kit is available in either a crossover steering setup (for tie rod and drag link) or a full hydraulic steering configuration, making it a perfect match for off-road buggies, Ultra4 builds, or trail rigs running large tires and custom suspension.
This high steer arm setup uses standard 2″ wide rod end mounts with ¾″ bolt holes. It also ties into the factory steering arm location using a massive 1-inch Grade 8 bolt and weld-in sleeves, providing unmatched strength and reliability for aggressive off-road use.
We had a lot of boxes we wanted to check off with this kit, and we succeeded.
- Proper Steering angles: We Spent a lot of time working on pivot locations to utilize all the steering angle the 05+ superduty 60s have to offer while maintaining proper Ackerman.
- 8″ steering travel = 40* steering angle
- 9″ steering travel = 45* steering angle
- 10″ steering travel = 50* steering angle
- * Measurements are based on the innermost mounting hole.
- Added height for better cross-over steering angles along with a bit more ground clearance and diff cover clearance
- No worries about it failing – BEEF
- Designed with a ton of surface area contact to the knuckle to ensure maximum strength.
- Double shear tie rod mounting designed around 7/8″ rod ends using 7/8″ x 3/4″- 2″ wide high misalignment spacers to run a large 3/4″ bolt.
- Huge 1″ bolt tied into the factory tie rod location sleeved with 1.5″x.250″ tubing
- Fit standard 17″ wheels
- Even with the added height, we could still package it all to fit in a 17″ with 4.5″ of backspacing or less.
If you are swapping in a 2005+ superduty axle, remember to check out our truss kit for these axles along with the needed brackets.
