"McRats" are you stocking the SD centerlinks yet?? -Jeff
This one looks good and strong and won't effect your turning radius. I hear complaints about the straight centerlinks not turning as good as stock. I think this modified centerlink came from Redline Diesel. Anyone seen this before? This was over on TDP
Gusseting the stock centerlink does not keep it from rotating. However, if you install cognito braces and install the solid mount supersteer Idler with weld-in frame brace, rotation of the stock centerlink is virtually nil. It would then bend or flex because it can no longer rotate. We saw a stock centerlink fold/bend really bad at the pulls last October. This weld job is a bandaid for a poor design, but I'll bet it would work. I Think theres a thread over on TDP now that shows photo's of a bent aftermarket centerlink.Exactly how is that supposed to stop the centerlink from rotating?
The problem is centerlink rotation, not bending.
That is a solution for a problem that doesn't exist.
has anyone seen crankitups new centerlink seems to be the same design and considerably cheaper not bashing micheals stuff because i have plenty of stuff from him on my truck but wont both accomplish the same thing with a straight bar design?

If one will launch their truck pretty rarely but is running some pretty high #2 power (450+) is a centerlink needed or just tie-rod sleeves (or do I not even need those)? I'd rather not lose any turning radius as this is mostly a daily driver/horse trailer pulling truck.
