High Steer Systems (4–6” Lift)

The TeraFlex TJ: Pro LCG Dana 30/44 High Steer System addresses many front-end steering issues associated with lifted TJ Wrangler/Unlimited models. This system beefs up the steering components of the Dana 30 or Rubicon Dana 44 front axle, helps maximize ground clearance, and corrects steering geometry for superior highway drivability.

Highly recommended for TJ Wrangler/Unlimited models with 4” or more lift. NOT an all-inclusive kit — may require additional modifications. Also fits ZJ Grand Cherokee, XJ Cherokee, and MJ Comanche with Dana 30 front axles — REQUIRES additional modifications.

The High Steer HD Aluminum Tie Rod and High Steer HD Aluminum Drag Link convert the TJ’s stock steering to a cross steering or a flipped steering setup. “Flipping” the HD Drag Link

over the Knuckle helps eliminate front-end shimmy, bump steer, and other alignment issues. The High Steer Sway Bar Mounts raise the Front Sway Bar up for more clearance for new High Steer components, while the Steering Stabilizer Mount adapts a 9550 VSS Steering Stabilizer to the hexagonal 6061-T6 aluminum tubing used in our HD Drag Link and HD Tie Rod.

Our complete Pro LCG Dana 30/44 High Steer System combines our Dana 30/44 High Steer Knuckle with our High Steer HD Aluminum Tie Rod Kit, High Steer HD Aluminum Drag Link Kit, High Steer Sway Bar Mount Kit, 9550 VSS Steering Stabilizer Mount Kit, and Front Sway Bar Quick Disconnect Kit. Most replacement components are available separately.

Compatible with all factory and aftermarket axle shafts, ball joints, and wheel hubs. Does not affect the operation of ABS.
