I'm getting my K5 ready for Harlan and started to install my highsteer crossover and the dom tube appear to be to short. The drag link, from box to pass side is 30 1/2" long ang the tie rod is 39 1/2" long. Comparing the dom tie rod to the stock one it look to be about 10" to short, What gives ? When I bought the kit form a member on CK5 he said it was for a D60 and it came with everything to do the conversion but the tie rod ends. Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Mark
 
Depending on who made the kit, the highsteer tierod is shorter because the arms on the knuckle are closer together. Also the tierod ends will probably add a good 6 inches
 
I found the makers name on the box, I'm going to call him and find out what TRE's it is set up for.

Thanks,
 
There are long TRE's and short ones. I dont have the #'s handy but it sounds like you have the wrong ones. Mine was short so I spliced a solid piece of stock in to lengthen it.
