hmmm.... Lets go over your question... It applies to steering... Whichi would consider very important... You want good, but you want cheap... That is an oxy moron...

If i were messing with my steering i would go with good quality over a cheaper price.
As for the specific question, i have a company in mind, but for some reason i can think of there name... Im sure some one will chime in though, and if not, when i remember ill chime in.... Knowing my luck i will wake up at 3:30 in the morning and the company will pop into my head....

While I can't vouch for his D60 arms, Tim (shakerbilt) did my tie rods, and he does a quality job, and is professional and prompt. I am building a different truck with a D60, and am considering his arm just because of my good dealings with him on my F250 steering.

i have used shakerbuilt several times and he does an excellent job. he is a little slow, but thats the price for quality. i am running one of his steering arms.

highly recommended and $100 is about average if not a little cheap. check the vendors section of pirate... sometimes they will have deals for like $75+ free shipping.

I didnt say I wanted to go cheap....i asked if $100 was a good price, if it was high what was cheaper. I dont know what a good price would be on a decent arm, which Is why I asked! notice i said "anything else that is good, but cheaper). Not one said I want to go cheap as I can now did did i?

Smile cheap steering

now you should do it the right way when it comes to your steering. I would suggest looking at "scary steering .com". they have some great inbred hill billy deluxe ideas for all you champs out there! all you need is a welder and scrap metal or even some re bar. good luck buddy!
