Are tehy worth it and what all you gotta do to install one? I seen on a guys site that has an 01 that you have to drill your spindle hole bigger to install it and he say its not worth it on a street car. What do you guys think

I didn't have to drill out the spindle. They fit right on. No problems.

Check out the link in my sig. I have some good before and after pics of the install of the steeda kit.

Don't really need it if you don't drop your car too much. My tie rods were sqeaking when I truned the wheel. I need a replacement anyhow. I bought the X2 ball joints, and they recommend the bump steer kit.

If you car is a daily driver, I don't know if you need them. I hear they don't last as long as replacement tie rods. I don't for sure though.

They do wake up your steering wheel though. If you get a kit, your steering wheel will me much more responsive to the driver input. A slight adjustment to steering, and you car follows. It was easy to get used to though.

My car is lowered 2in so i guess thats a little much. Well i'm gonna be changing the spindle on the drivers side and replacing the ball joints on both sides, changing all the shocks/struts, adding c/c plates, and painting the calipers so i want to have all the stuff i need i heard their good for lowered cars and if your car likes to ride ruts then you petty much need them? My car loves ruts i figured it just the wide tires. I was fuguring on going withteh UPR kit if i get them but i don't know. I was asked to go to a car show on the 14th which i kinda doubt i'd have teh parts by then anyway but i'm going to florida in June wanted to have it fixed by then so i could take it kinda thinking its not gonna happen i'll just have to drive the Ram

yeah they just drop in, and they ARE the tie rod ends, so when you do that, your putting new tie rod ends in also, yeah it really fixes the steering change over bumps, and uneven surfaces
