"Installing the TOMS OFFROAD Heim Steering Kit has been one of the best upgrades I’ve made to my Early Bronco. Before the install, I had a ton of play in the factory linkage, but after switching to this kit, all that slop disappeared. The steering feels tight, responsive, and far more precise. Beyond the improved feel, the added strength has been a huge advantage. I’ve hit the linkage on rocks, stumps, and other obstacles, and it has performed flawlessly every time."

Technical Specs
We often get the question which Heim Steering Kit you should get if you have converted to disc brakes. To make it simple, keep in mind that the brakes don't actually matter at all for the steering linkage. What matters is the distance from the center hole of your passenger steering knuckle to the center hole of your driver steering knuckle. If you converted to disc brakes and did not change your steering knuckles, then you would still use the drum brake steering linkage. If you are unsure, measure from tie rod mounting hole to tie rod mounting hole on the knuckles and use this measurement. Will not work with factory steering stabilizer bracket setup.
