I don't mean to hijack this post. But I will be doing this soon, and am curious what you guys do with the front axle torque rod. Remove it completely? How's it affect braking? Thanks!


With stock push-pull steering, torque rod is fairly important. It helps control brake- and bump-steer and it helps to protect the steering J-arm from breaking.

With crossover steering, it really has no purpose, in fact, it lives right where the draglink wants to "cross over" from the steering box to the passenger side of the frame, so it has to be removed (or on a SAS, it was never there to begin with).
