Crossover questing re lift

[MNorby]

I got the 60 ready and looking at how to do cross over. I currently have 4" lift but am planning on a 6" lift later on. I read that w/ 4" I will have crossember clearance problems so will have to put a diff style crossmemebr on such as MOOs or use a kinked draglink. Now my question is if I design it for 4" lift now what would happen when I put 6" lift on it. Also can you put a dropped pitman arm of sorts to clear the crossmember? Or would I be best off to wait till I put 6" lift in to design the crossover steering?

Im running a 4" lift and am about to install my crossover. Im gonna be running a 4" dropped draglink and a 4" dropped pitman arm. This is the same setup Mudzer is running with 6" lift and he said he had no problems with the stock crossmember.

If you encounter crossover interference, consider just trimming your stock x-member...I have a 6" lift and had to just barely trim the edge off the x-member (I am using a straight drag link, not a bent one)...this was the cheapest way to make it work. You can save a lot of money and work by just trimming the edge off...

My drag link hit my crossmember pretty good. I am running a straight drag link with 6inches of lift. I ordered a new crossmember from M.O.O.. I havent got it yet but it's a sure fix to the problem.

I'm assuming that you have a 4" drop pitman for the straight draglik right....Do you thinkI will be able to do the same with a 4inch lift. I am going to be running a highsteer over the springs and am wondering about clearance.

is a bent draglinkthe way to go?

who makes bent draglinks? Is there anything wrong with using the bent draglink vs a straight one?
