I am running T-G High Steer on my truck, upgrade the studs to ARP (cheap insurance IMO) It works great. I would just recommend keeping an eye on the tie rod ends...mine are fine but they have a reputation for wearing quick...not every one has that type of experience though.
for steering box mountings I wish i has seen this prior to doing mine
it is a pretty good example


before your final welds cycle the steering-->what you don't want to have happen when you install your high steer:

The IFS box mount is pretty simple. Cut the fender well so you can easily access the PS box area like shown in my pictures posted already and then push the box all the way forward until it is on the core. Angle it so the holes line up on the frame in the center and then test fit your mounting plates. Tack weld and test fit again to make sure the pitman arm clears and weld out.

Suppose it depends on how the sleeves and plates are made. If the sleeves stay behind the plates, then probably best to weld the sleeves into the frame and grind flush. If the sleeves stick through the plates, then they probably get welded to the plates and then the plates to the frame. Best to ask TG, though.

I take it the Trail Gear kit doesn't have the sleeves welded to one of the plates. I think you're gonna want to weld the sleeves to the plates after drilling your frame. On the outside of the frame, you'll need to grind the sleeve flush with the plate, because that's where the steering box fits.
