high steer conversion

You are going to need a passenger side flat top knuckle. Have the flat top knuckle milled to to ensure it is true. Then get a high steer arm and stud kit for the passenger side. I got my high steer arm from Partsmike.com and they were awesome to work with. I also got a 12" DOM tube that has left and right hand threads that replaces the adjuster for the drag link. As far as cost, I got my knuckle for about $65, had a friend that did the mill and tap work. Expect to pay around $100 for that machine work. I think the high steer arm, stud kit, and dom tub(with jam nuts) was about $200. That gives you a ball park idea as to cost and involvement.

BJ's Kit

They have a full kit here for about $35 more than the Chief's estimated price. I've been having a hard time trying to figure what's up with my order, but if you choose their kit hopefully you'll have better luck.

FSJ Dana 44 - SOA (spring over axle) Steering Solutions I?m making this post because we seem to be asked the same question on a reasonably regular basis. It will be a sticky for a bit, then it will get archived. The topic is pretty clear, Dana 44 - SOA Steering Solutions: It?s that simple, but I am going to impose a few

Partsmike, Ballistic Fab, BTF, etc. all sell passenger side high steer arms that you can use. Most machine the knuckles for ~$55 (for both) and the knuckles both will fit in a flat rate box.

Also, you should be able to find a passenger side knuckle for under $50 as most driver/passeneger pair sell for $100-$125. Sometimes you can find a pair that have already been milled on Pirate's forum for a good price.
