{"product_id":"apex-kit175-ford-17-20-hd-steering-kit","title":"Apex Ford 2017-Current Ford Super Duty F-250\/F-350 HD Steering Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Apex steering kit is the highest quality direct bolt in steering linkage on the market for your 2017 and newer Ford Super Duty. It addresses the common failure of the factory drag link joints which leads to death wobble by using massive greaseable metal on metal joints, and beefy DOM tubing construction. Should you ever have a joint wear out, they are easily and individually replaceable. We're excited to offer a bolt in solution specifically designed around the extra stress and wear of large tires and off road use! \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to take things to the next level, we've also got stabilizer options you can pair with this steering. Steering stabilizers are key in reducing road feedback from transmitted through the steering. Choose the high mount option for a factory position replacement, and to fight tires with a right hand pull. Choose the low mount with a diff guard to right tires with a left hand pull. If you want the best of the best, choose both to have a true dual opposing stabilizer configuration with one stabilizer on the drag link on and the other on the tie rod. Unlike most dual stabilizer kits that are for show, this setup was carefully designed with specifically tuned stabilizers on each steering link to preload the joints to reduce play, and offer the most damping force and steering control possible. We're also the ONLY place that offers what's needed to make these stabilizers work with Apex steering! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFITMENT NOTES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that 23+ Carli low mount stabilizers are ONLY compatible with steel linkage as the 2\" diameter billet tie rod will contact the diff guard. 05-22 trucks do not have this issue. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis kit will NOT fit wide-track F-450 models.
