Coachbuilder steering kit

I just installed the CB steering kit on my "15 CM 4x4. They made a huge difference, Anyone use these? If so, how do you grease them? Or do you? I see they have a grease boot.

 

i use spray silicone type stuff on the top of the pivot point.

 

Thats kinda the route I was gonna use

 

Triflow, only when they're noisy

 

And, it's not really a grease boot, it's a dust boot. You can check with Total Chaos on what's the appropriate grease/lube for heim joints. Heims are typically self lubricating.

 

They recommend Super Lube. I put it in a large syringe and squeeze it around under the boot.

 

I swear it made the steering easier, but the big difference is the turning radius, I have 35 inch tires with a 6 inch lift. Before I had to back up, pull forward, back up just to turn around. Now it turns like factory. Also had the skreaching sound on pavement when turning, no longer have that. I drove this truck lifted without these for about 3 years, sure wished I would have changed them 3 years ago.

 

Who is they? Ekstrom?

 

Would they make a difference on a truck with stock ride hight? Tighter turn radius for stocker too?

 

Yes, David.

 

I Doubt you would notice anything.
