Howdy. I am sure you all know about Performance Unlimited's BulletProof Steering Systems. Well, I am sure they are nice, and I know of people that have them on their EB's and love them. But its $369 for the basic kit, plus an additional $28 for the knuckle under kit. Thats a bit much for me. Stock replacement for my bronco would have cost me about $210 plus shipping, or about $280 from a local place.

Luckily for me, I heard about Stone Crusher Steering thru the ECBR mailing list. Anthony's system is $255 for fullsize trucks, with the correct shims included for a knuckle under. He also includes 2 extra heim joints, just in case your's fail. The rods are 1-1/4" DOM tubing which has a .687" I.D. which gives a .2815" wall thickness, and come powder coated black. The tie rod weighs about 11 lbs, and the drag link comes in around 9 lbs.

Anthony was great to deal with, and helped me out alot when for some reason his website wouldnt load on my machine. After you place an order, Anthony usually ships in 5 - 7 days (about 7 in my case) and then 2 day mail to me (which only took 1). So now I have em. Now all I do is have to install them, and hopefully they work as good as they look.

Nice! Price is right, and it looks like it some good instructions with it too

***jackhart*** · 02-10-2004, 05:41 PM

SquattyD, that looks like a good find. Would you let us know what you think after you install it??

**jermil01** · 02-10-2004, 05:55 PM

..This is on my list for my SAS, so get it installed and give us some feedback..

SquattyD · 03-16-2004, 11:19 PM

I got a D60 now, so it wont be installed. So if someone wants it, new, never used, let me know and we can work something out.

should fit just about anything with a solid d44 up front. drag is 43" and tie rod is 52" plus a couple inches for the heims installed. it was designed for my 78 with a 44, 6" of lift and a drop pitman arm.
