Default Steering setup

What's everyond got for a steering linkage/tie rid setup? Got an 04 2500 with eight inch suspension lift on 38s. What are some of your guys recommendations for a setup? Something good and durable. Appreciate everyone's input

Build your own cross over with a drop pitman arm. Only thing that will be usable and effective.

Any good company's you suggest to get parts? My current setup rubs on the lower mount for my sway bar links on the axle

Google it, there are a couple places that have some designs. Otherwise, it is build it yourself.

Steering box stabilizer
2009 and up steerimg linkage
Upgraded sterring stabilizer or dual stabilizers (note: if u have after market diff covers the hardware that comes with the dual stabilizers wont work and you'll need a center mount)
Either a carli or bd track bar with drop bracket (I love my carli track bar)
You might also need offset top ball joints if the camber is too great
Most of this you can get away without but these parts will definitely keep you away from death wobble (I learned that the hard way)

Right on man thanks. Been looking for different parts. I do have death wobble and play in the steering wheel. I do know the steering box needs to be replaced. Already go a new one, just waiting to fix everything in one shot. My steering linkage/ tie rods have been the biggest issue
