Tie Rod passenger knuckle sleeve issues
Today I swapped my Dana 30 front axle for another Dana 30 axle with 4.88s,a front locker, and gussets. Everything went great, except on the new axle,the top drag link attachment point on the knuckle seems to be missing the sleeve . No clue how that happened but I need that sleeve and can't find it anywhere! I see teraflex makes one, but not sure if that will work for stock application.
Anybody have this happen before?

Why not just transfer the knuckle over from your old axle, and put this one on that? That would be the easiest solution if it's still around.

Yep, the JKS drag link comes with a bracket for the track bar. I'm going to order an additional inner drag link tie rod for the pitman arm, then both ends will be new. Also new tie rod ends/kit so its all new. Any recommendations on the tie rod ends?? Seems like MOOG and Omix-ada are decent. I have a JKS 2.5 lift currently

TR's don't have to be pricey either.....Bora Bora just build one out of 7075 aluminum with 1-ton ends for less than $200.

I would not put a high steer on a 2.5 lift because you need at least 3-3.5" of bump stop and that will hurt your up travel and I doubt you need a high steer with a 2.5" lift.
