    Like how URD markets their y-pipes and headers "for racing purposes only" yet we all run them? It won't work, we all probably wouldn't sue over a catastrophic failure but all it takes is one jackass to die due to a failure and a massive lawsuit to ensure to put a small speciality business like that under.

    Oh that is bad ass.... it takes all the stress off of the rack coming from the tie rods... the rack is connected to the slider that takes on the stress. Also lowers the point where the tierode attach, I'd imagine ideal for LThe trucks. Wicked awesome idea...

    See I don't see how you attach it to the ITRE. And it's just a tube within a tube with bushings right? Is the bigger outer tube connected to the crossmember somewhere??


    Custom..sadly..

    The front is plated to the crossmember. Bushings attached with set screws, I would recommend brass, and milled aluminum blocks to run off the clevis at the ends.

    Monte, check this out closer... the itR is still connected to the rack and not on the lower tube!?!?!?! So this isn't built for better tie rod articulation, it'spurely built to support the rack guides.... weird.

    It moves with the ITRE though..just before the joint. You can see the back half of the ITRE but the bolt for the slide is before it.
