Re: Ready to go 1 Ton/K5

From what I can tell, the hi-steer setup from Ballistic Fab comes in lower than the high steer kit from ORD. Ballistic Fab's 2 arm kit is $280, then the draglink and tierod plus ends kit is $240, add a pitman arm already reamed out from another vendor for about $70 to $85 and that brings the whole price for the Ballistic Fab hi-steer to $590 to $605. Assuming I'm not missing something - that beats the heck out of ORD's $800 hi-steer kit plus you've deleted the king pin springs.

I can't say I need hi-steer for the use of my truck but Ballistic Fab's hi-steer setup ends up being about $150 more than ORD's standard $440 crossover kit, plus if you go replace the king pin spring and bushing, that raised the price to $460 and lowers the difference to just $130.

At this point I'm leaning towards Ballistic Fab's setup.
