I appreciate the informative video. I really don't like the flop but so far everything stays in place and is very strong. I have hydro assist on our TJ so we work the rods ends pretty hard up in the rocks and trails. I have bent and destroyed most other brands so time will tell how rugged the parts really are. I did use regular nuts on all the bolts until I got all the alignment set where I wanted it, that made the adjustments very easy then I installed the lock nuts.
Great idea with the normal nut and there isn't much you can do with the flop. Even an automotive style tie rod end will still flop....most people just don't notice it. We haven't heard it 'flop' around on the trails, have you?
I have this crossover on my xj and i love it, my only issue is with clearance on the passenger tire/rim when turning left and rubbing on the bar (15” rims). Is there any way to gain more clearance without going with a bigger wheel size?
Do you believe a 1in spacer would help? It might not be as appealing aesthetically, but it'll it solved the problem it might be worth it. Since you've already drilled out the knuckles. What do you think?
How to do adjust the toe in and toe out ? Never done it before so I can't figure it out I got 75" 1/2 rear 74 2/4 in front how should I adjust this the right way?
I just got this kit installed. the steering wheel was tuned over 90 degrees from center. track bar bolt was loose. after that, i took it to another shop to have it aligned. They did a good job but I still get wobble. feels like from the passenger side. Any suggestions on where too look?
The answer differs depending on which stabilizer your are referring to. The sway bar from the factory should work just find. If you are talking about the steering damper, we sell a bracket to allow the factory damper to attach. steinjager.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_sku=J0048823
If you are looking for the bracket to reuse your factory stabilizer, go here: steinjager.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_sku=J0048823. If you need the actual stabilizer, most auto parts stores will carry them or you can easily find one on the internet.
I'm going to be installing this kit. I have a drop pitman arm and the measurement of the current set up from the spindle to the arm is 34 inches. Should I remove the drop pitman arm? I know it is 4 in of lift.
From my experience, most of the death wobble with bigger tire combo comes from the ball joints and track bar.
This pretty much answered any question I might have

@@Steinjager I haven't heard it flop, so far it is great.
Great video, Thank you
What’s the torque specs for the kit?
Yes, I need this also. Anyone else find it? Or just go with the bolt type/size spec?
what do you do about the sway bar links and their mounts? On my 06 TJ they are directly in the path of where the drag link should go.
Are the bends in both bars supposed to point out in front (like an arrow pointing out), or down towards the ground?
What’s the torque spec on those 5/8 bolts

Do you have bump steer after install this kit??
Just installed the Steinjager crossover kit on my 93 xj and was wondering if there is a stabilizer bar that works with that kit?

I installed this in my Jeep xj with a 4 inch lift but the tires seem to drag does anyone know what it could be
What do you alignment numbers look like?
So this works for both tj and xj? I bought one on amazon but it said tj not xj...
Yes
Does it matter what direction the pitman arm bolt is?
We have always pointed the bolt up but you will want to check clearances no matter which way you mount it.
Is the crossover steering better then stock suspension? If so, why?
*stock steering
Where can i get a stabilizer kit for this?

Can I use regular ends on it?
Not that we know. We designed it around 3/4" rod ends.

34" is going to be on the short side. You will know right away if it turns much further in on direction than the other.
Drop pitman arms stress your steering box. Get rid of it if at all possible
