I will be trying out the new SteerSmarts "no drill" drag link. Also their tie rod.
Look for it at SEMA and to be available soon after.
All you will need is a track bar bracket to run a highsteer kit.

I linked only the drag link. There's going to be three options. Top mount, bottom mount, and one if the knuckle has already been drilled.
Another cool feature. The rod ends have a anti-flop feature built it.

Here is the link for both Tie Rod and bottom mount drag link. The site is not completed yet. They will have the other drag link options packaged with the tie rod.

This set up is comparable to Currie, albeit cheaper, A better design, and boot seals that won't spit crease after one wheeling trip

So its just a drag link flip it looks. My bad i pictured high steer as raising drag link AND tie rod up out of the way like reids knuckles or similar. Thats what i was implying to do if your constantly bending tie rods.
