Factory lockers? Worth it?

The stock tie rod assembly. It is already there. See the crossover uses a bracket that bolts to the top of the pass. side steering knuckle, and that attatches to the steering box, via a longer draglink that "crosses over" the width of the truck from left to right. The bracket you are looking for, is only a pass. side bracket, and will only have one hole at the end for the drag link. A high steer arm with foward steering will have two holes, one for the draglink, and one for the tie rod, and another bracket will be required for the driver side to attatch to the top of that knuckle. That would place the tie rod over the leaf springs, and is refered to aas "high steer".
