Wondering if anyone can tell me if the stock torque rod set up will work with a 3" spring lift without any modifications. I did a little research online and some say only if it's more than 3" it will require modifying the stock torque rod set up. Is this true? If so why would you not need to with any lift less than 3"? Appreciate the help.
Thanx

 

Have seen some remove it even with push-pull steering. Could just convert to high steer.

Who's kit you looking at using??

 

I already installed it. Rough Country. Doesn't seem to have any issues with torque rod on so maybe I'm fine.

 

rock it then!!

 

Just installed OME leaf packs they are supposed to give 2 inches i have push pull steering and the only thing i have noticed is now my steering wheel is turned maybe 45 degrees to the left
. Leads me to wonder if i should be concerned about my torque rod, my drag link seems like its at a fine angle.

 

Definitely looks like the caster or toe is out of whack. Unless that's one of those cool wide angle lenses. Seems like both tires are turned outward at the front

 

What did the alignment shop say when you took it in post lift?

 

Found out that with the 3" lift torque rod interferes with the sway bar well before full articulation. I solved this by buying a torque rod bracket extention made by Skyjacker for about $35. This raised the rod back up to more or less stock angle. 👍

 

A little late in replying, but steering wheel change is to be expected I think. The reason your steering wheel is turned is because the drag link is pulling on the steering knuckle to make up for the extra length created by the added 2 inches in height. Since the drag link is non-adjustable you have to correct the steering wheel by pulling it off and reposition it (19 mm nut and possibly a steering wheel puller - easy). The same happened to me when I gave my 82 a 3 inch lift. Not a big deal.
