Even in stock form, the Ford TTB steering seems somewhat vague. On off-camber or less than ideal driving surfaces, it takes continuous corrective steering input to keep the vehicle pointed straight. When the vehicle is raised, these inherent tendencies are magnified, creating two areas of concern: 1) Minimizing tie rod angles, 2) Keeping the tie rods' arc of movement in phase with the axle beams' arc of movement.

These two factors "make or break" driveability. When this geometry is incorrect, it causes excessive toe-in / toe-out variations as the suspension travels, resulting in the TTB Ford version of "bump-steer". Superlift offers two methods to correct steering. Our dropped pitman arm reduces some of the additional steering linkage angle created by the increased ride height. Our pitman arm, used with our Superunner replacement steering linkage system, addresses both problems. The new steering system uses a centerlink to further reduce tie rod angles, and the new tie rods are more proportional in length to the axle beams. The result is steering linkage that is more in phase with the suspension.
