Brand New Six Stud Crossover Steering Knuckles
After many years of waiting, there is now a fix for loose, broken, or sheared studs that are beginning to be more and more of a problem with higher torque being put on the 4 stud system. This kit totally eliminates the problem of broken steering knuckles and studs. The addition of two studs in each arm effectively prevents the steering arm from becoming loose and shearing off the studs. The knuckle housing is also thicker than stock and larger gussets have been added around the outside of the knuckle for extra strength. Precision CNC machined, each knuckle is direct bolt on, heavy duty replacement.

These knuckles are sold as a pair and include a set of special 6 hole shims for use between the top of the knuckle and the steering arm. Also included is a 1/2" coarse thread bolt to help remove the steering arms for knuckle service. To remove the steering arms, remove all 6 nuts, then install the bolt in the top of the arm. As the bolt is tightened, the steering arm is pulled up off the knuckle. Stock lower bearing plates and shims from your old knuckles are needed for knuckle assembly. A minimum of four additional steering arm studs are needed for installation. See below for either factory studs or use ARP Knuckle Studs for even greater strength for your steering system.

Toyota High Steer Crossover Steering Kit
Crossover Steering is critical for rock crawling. The stock steering just can't keep pace with today's super flexible suspension systems. The stock push-pull system on Toyota Pickups limits flex and steering radius when used in lifted applications. This results in broken stock steering arms and loss of steering. Our high steer kit features unbeatable quality at a super low price. Kit features super beefy, solid forged steering arms, heavy duty pitman arm, heavy duty .250 wall steering rods, and greaseable heavy duty FJ-80 tie rod ends. This kit was designed to be used with an IFS steering box and is ideal for solid-axle converted trucks. If you have a factory equipped solid axle, a IFS steering box and mounting kit can be purchased separately. Precision fit for easy assembly. Going with a 6 Stud Crossover Kit gives you the option of upgrading in the future with a 6 Stud knuckle if it doesn’t fit the budget right now. Four and six stud arms and knuckles can be interchanged. You can bolt a four stud arm to a six stud knuckle and a six stud steering arm will also fit on a four stud knuckle. This allows you to upgrade your steering system in stages, doing either the knuckles or the steering arms first.

ARP Heavy Duty Knuckle Studs
Ever had your factory knuckle studs loosen, rust, or even shear right off the knuckle? It is an industry standard that anyone who is looking for the highest strength and greatest quality fasteners use ARP (Automotive Race Products.) They are the world leader in fastener technology, because they have a record for the best quality and highest strength. These studs are made from a superior ARP 2000 Material- which is an exclusive, hybrid-alloy developed to deliver superior strength and better fatigue properties. The ARP2000 material is capable of achieving clamp loads in the 215,000-220,000 psi range. Not just your average stud you may say? Far from it! Studs are .250 (1/4") longer than stock to accommodate all aftermarket steering arms. Each stud features a 8mm hex head for easy removal with common tools. Check out the picture to the left of what stock studs can do when stressed- the steering arm just sheared right off the knuckle because the studs couldn’t take the torque.

Rock-Assault Ram Steering
The Rock-Assault Ram Steering assist kit is the best kit you will find anywhere! Our kit features a 6" X 1.5" stroke hydraulic ram with high temp inner and outer seals for long life and no leaks. Our specially designed ram features a 3/4" rod that is 50% stronger then other 1/2" rods on the market. For Dana knuckle applications we also offer an 8" stroke version.

Our specially formed, easy to install brackets make installing our kit a breeze. If you have looked at other kits on the market, you will see they either don't include mounts or they just provide generic tabs. Our mounting hardware is specially designed to fit the Toyota axle and High Steer. Once the steering box has been tapped, installation of the ram takes about one hour.

Each bracket is formed from heavy-duty 1/4" plate steel for extra strength. Included with each ram kit: Ram with high temp inner and outer seals, 5/8" rod ends w/jam nut, Ram bracket for axle housing, Ram bracket for tie rod, (2) Hoses and (2) JIC 90 degree elbows, Mounting Hardware, and Instructions w/photos.

Rock Assault Ram Steering Kit, 2” X 6”
(If you are using Aftermarket p/s pump or higher volume pump such as the Rock-AssaultTM Steering Pump Kit- this is the kit to purchase when used with Toyota High Steer Arms)  Note: 2” Rams react slower than 1.5” Rams but increase pressure applied.
Price: $208.05


Additional Application Notes: Adding a ram assist steering to a truck with the stock power steering pump will slow the steering noticeably. While it will take less steering wheel effort to turn the wheels, but it will take a little longer time to to turn the wheels, especially at low engine rpm's. The larger the ram bore then more noticeable the slowness becomes. If you are planning to use the stock Toyota power steering pump we recommend using the 1.5" ram. We strongly recommend using a high volume/pressure "TC" style pump when using 2" bore rams. On V6 applications, the oil pan may need to be modified or replaced to make room for the ram.

Rock-AssaultTM Steering Pump Kit
Most Toyota pumps are a "vane style pump" and are not up to the task of supplying enough pressure for a ram-assist setup, especially over time when they become worn out.  This is found especially to be the case at low RPM's.  The stock pump puts out 1,300 psi @ one gallon per minute. Drilling out the restrictor plates in a stock pump for more volume often leads to pump failure. The answer is a replacement "TC" style pump. TC style pumps have been used for years in racing, rockcrawling, and just about every type of aftermarket steering setups use a TC style pump because of it's shear reliablity.  TC style pumps generate less heat, because of their design and are able to keep up with the rigorous demands that we put on them today.  The Trail-Gear Rock-AssaultTM pump puts out 1,600 psi of pressure at 4 gallons per minute. This provides the full fluid volume your steering box and ram are looking for, even at an idle. Pump kit includes pump, pump bracket, reservoir, reservoir bracket, belt, fittings  hoses, & hardware. Pump kit is designed to work with stock or ram drilled IFS power steering boxes.

Application Notes: This pump and bracket is designed to fit all Toyota 4cyl 4wd motors from 1979 - 1995. A large power steering fluid cooler (included) is required on the low pressure side of the system. Pump bracket works in conjunction with stock idler bracket. If your truck is not currently equipped with power steering, you will need to purchase the idler bracket and replace the steering gear box with one designed for use with power steering. The stock fan belt will not work with this pump and will need to be replaced with Napa # 9440 belt. Belt is included with kit.

Large Capacity Power Steering Reservoir
When installing a high flow pump such as the one listed above, it is important to use a larger reservoir to provide enough fluid when the system needs it. The sock reservoir is fine for the stock pump but is not adequate for the TC style aftermarket pumps. Side input of reservoir is a #6 JIC fitting and the bottom outlet to pump is a #10 JIC fitting. Reservoir includes cap.
Reservoir bracket makes it easy to bolt on the fender with minor bending to fit Includes mounting hardware. Unpainted finish.

Steering Fluid Cooler
If your running a high volume/pressure pump your system is generating much more heat then the stock system. Fluid overheating can cause damage to steering pump and steering box. Installing a oil cooler in front of the radiator is the best way to prevent this over heating. Our cooler features a fin area of 9" X 8" and does a great job of keeping the steering fluid temps under control in all conditions. Mounting kit sold separately.

Pinion / Castor Shims
Caster angle has a lot to do with many steering issues you may have. Most just worry about their pinion angle in the front but you have to deal with your caster angle first and pinion angle second. You generally want 2-5 degrees positive caster. That means the top of your tire is angled toward the fire wall. For the rear you have to set your pinion angle differently for the type of drive shaft you are running. These solid steel angle shims are your ticket to safe and vibration free driving. 2.25" Toyota Spring Width.

Available in 3, 5, and 7 degree shims. Note: Using over a 3 degree shim in front with crossover steering setups and large leaf packs may cause the tie rod to hit the leaf spring.
