DirtyComanche Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 You can make the JCR setup OTK. Tell them and they'll ream the one TRE the other way. Then you jsut have to buy those flipsert things and drill out your existing holes. It's advised you weld the flipserts in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87manche Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 can't just ream from the top, because it's already reamed for the bottom. You'll end up with nothing for the TRE to seat into. don't forget that if you're going OTK with the steering you should also move your trackbar, needs to have the same angle as the draglink, or bumpsteer will result. JKS makes a nice bracket. You'll also have to modify the swaybar link mounts on the axle, might want to ask JCR if they can put a bend in the tube to clear those. CALL JCR! they've done it, they can tell you exactly what needs to happen. I've wheeled with them, they will help you as best they can over the phone.

86FUBAR Posted June 9, 2007 Author Share Posted June 9, 2007 thanks fer the info , ya the track bar will be delt with after the steering goes on and i aint got no sway bar (its a hoot to drive , leans like a mofo in turns) , but i might havem put the bend in it anyhow and yer right JKS does have a nice bracket but why buy what u can make.
