Description
Before purchasing, please consider the following installation requirements:
– The Dual Sport Bump Steer Eliminator System must be installed using the Tie Rod Under (TRU) orientation. To learn more about TRU, please refer to our dedicated resources.
– Your front axle can be aftermarket, provided it matches the stock width of a Dana 30 or 44. The track bar mount must be in the stock location with 66-77 Bronco factory-style knuckles or ’76-’79 Bronco/F-150 knuckles.
– Ensure you have either a factory or an aftermarket equivalent of the 66-77 Bronco frame and steering gearbox.
– This system includes a redesigned Hassle-Free Heavy Duty track bar that replaces your existing one, potentially requiring you to drill out your track bar frame mount hole to 5/8″.

This system leverages years of expertise to provide a superior steering setup tailored to all 66-77 Broncos, facilitating an enhanced driving experience without the need for drilling knuckles.

This is the game changer! Probably the single most significant upgrade I’ve made to improve driveability, eliminate bump steer, and address my twitchy steering. Once I got the other pieces of the puzzle dialed in (steering box, ball joints, etc.) and got a proper alignment, I was amazed. Best thing I’ve done, hands down!

Dual Sport Bump Stop Eliminator. The items are very well made. I am running a 2.5″ lift with a drop track bar bracket. The track bar arm and the rod from the pitman arm are now parallel. The only issue I had was that one of the rod ends that ordinally came with the kit was incorrect and it took several weeks to get the correct one. Plan on chasing the threads with a tap prior to assembly to remove the paint or whatever is inside the tubes. Otherwise it would of been 5 stars.
