Not yet. The arm I will be using came in the mail today. I have some different arms that I was going to use, but switched to this on after the full high steer thing went out the windo. I mocked it up to get the measurements today and sent them along to Derek's hookup to get the DOM cut and tapped. He is expecting those to be done tomorrow, so I should finally get it on there this weekend.

I measured my turning radius last week so I can do a comparison after. Between the XJ pitman arm and slightly lower-range Durango steering box, it is pretty sad right now

I took out the puck it had and put 3.5 coil springs and shocks for a 4-6 inch lift from fat bobs up in Ogden. Got a buddy in tooele I'm picking up a long arm kit from saturday. Other than that intake TB spacer exhaust home made bumper hid lights and all the good tune up stuff with a used rig

lol, Well post up how it goes, I love cross over steering. interested to see what your thoughts are.

Advanced 4x4 in SLC made my arms for me on the spot (about 45 mins) they where 75$, just in case you ever need a replacement ect. will custom drill/taper them for any setup for no additional cost.
