Re: high steer
Ryan is running the Savvy flip kit and raised sway bar bracket on the driver's side. I don't know if he flipped on the passenger side too. Seems like a lot of work to flip both sides on a TJ.

Re: high steer
I think Ryan just did the driver's side. Doing both sides is A LOT of extra work that isn't really worth it on a TJ. The operating angles of the track bar and drag link are lower on a TJ vs an XJ. I did the full flip on my Cherokee mostly to see if it could be done without a lot of overly custom parts (and the fact that I had a worn out Currie drag link. If I were to build another Jeep, I'd just flip the drivers side tie rod.

Re: high steer
I did the flip kit using a YJ tie rod on my 44's stock CJ knuckles.
It was pretty easy to do. The instructions say to tack the sleeve, but I perimeter welded 'em. If you only need to do one side, then all the better.

Re: high steer
Yep, I just did the driver's side and used mr Blaine/savvys bracket. Pretty simple overall. If you want to retain a sway bar you will have to rework the axle ends whether you flip just driver or both. Do make sure you check your rim size as the drivers side end gets real close to the inside of the rim.
