Important Fitment Info:
This system is engineered to retain factory alignment and steering geometry while significantly increasing strength. Compatible with GM and aftermarket pitman/idler arms. This package will only work on trucks with the centerlink in the factory position. If your truck is lifted, it must use a spindle-style lift (not a control arm drop).
If installing on a leveled truck, longer sway bar end links may be required. We recommend our #KRSWEL02

Description:
Kryptonite’s SS Centerlink and Tie Rod Package is an elite-level upgrade for GM HD truck and Hummer H2 owners looking for serious steering durability without compromising geometry or alignment.
