This Reid Racing JK001L heavy duty steering knuckle is ideal for Jeep Wrangler JK high steer / crossover steering setups. Raised steering linkage, dual steering stops, and increased strength are the primary improvements while installation is simplified by allowing the OEM “outers” to be reused. Reid Racing heavy duty knuckles are made from high strength ductule iron using extra material and ribbing.
Top Features & Benefits
Premium knuckles for high steer / crossover steering setups
Uses stock 2007+ Jeep Wrangler JK brake rotors, calipers, stub shafts and U-joints
Fits JK Dana 30, JK Rubicon Dana 44, and Mopar & aftermarket JK axles
Easy bolt-on installation with no machining required
Aftermarket high strength axle shafts, U-joints/CV joints, and stub shafts can be used
Antilock Brakes, Traction Control, and Electronic Stability Control systems remain fully operational
Steering linkage is raised as high as possible while retaining clearance for OEM Jeep and most aftermarket wheels
Tie Rod gains 1.5 inches of clearance to minimize vulnerability to trail damage
Drag Link is flipped and gains 3 inches of height to perfectly correct the steering geometry for the common 3-4 inch suspension lift; minimizes additional steering correction for taller suspension lifts. Requires an aftermarket drag link, and we recommend a track bar bracket to eliminate bump steer. Works with any standard JK drag link flip kit
Cast from high strength ductile iron
Beefed up with extra material and ribbing
Cast-in DUAL steering stops eliminate bent stop bolts that can cause u-joint and axle failures
Tapered tie rod holes fit OEM-size tie rod ends; “1-ton” tie rod ends used in some aftermarket steering linkage may require very minor modification – call for details
Tie rod holes can be drilled to accept 3/4″ heim ends
Powder coated bright orange for long lasting looks
